“In an appeal from a bankruptcy, court decision this court-like the district court or the bankruptcy appellate panel-affords the novo review to the bankruptcy court’s conclusions of law. See In re Healthco International, Inc., 132 F.3d 104, 107 (1st Cir.1997); In re DN Associates, 3 F.3d 512, 515 (1st Cir.1998). [[Image here]] Apart from the appellant’s self-serving speculation, there is nothing in the record to suggest that the bankruptcy court did not appreciate the controlling legal rules, or, appreciating them, defied their dictates. Consequently, we uphold the district court’s determination that abuse of discretion is the applicable standard of review. See Reliance Steel Prods. Co. v. National Fire Ins. Co., 880 F.2d 575, 577 (1st Cir.1989) (noting that an appellant cannot avoid a deferential standard of review by the simple expedient of dressing factual disputes or judgment calls in “legal costumery”).”
