EDITH H. JONES, Chief Judge:

David Wilson Morrison ("Morrison") appeals the bankruptcy court's decision, affirmed by the district court, holding him personally liable for a $549,773.63 nondischargeable debt pursuant to 11 U.S.C. § 523(a)(2)(B). We hold that the bankruptcy court had jurisdiction to enter a monetary judgment against Morrison, and we reject his challenges to the nondischargeability conclusion of the court. The judgment is AFFIRMED.
