    PER CURIAM:

    Highland Construction Management Services, LP, appeals from the district court’s order affirming the bankruptcy court’s order granting summary judgment to Wells Fargo Bank, f/b/o James Guyant IRA, on Highland’s complaint seeking “re-characterization” of a prior transaction between the parties. The bankruptcy court properly found that, because the nature and character of the transaction was ligated in prior state court proceedings between the same parties, Highland’s claim was barred by res judicata. See Va. Sup. Ct. R. l:6(a). We have reviewed the record on appeal, as well as the parties’ briefs, and we find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Highland Constr. Mgmt. Servs., LP v. Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., 569 B.R. 673 (E.D. Va. 2017). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

    AFFIRMED
