   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  17-6009
   U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Des Moines   
   [PUBLISHED] [Nail, Author, with Saladino, Chief Judge, and Schermer, 
   Bankruptcy Judge] 
   Bankruptcy Appellate Panel. The bankruptcy court did not err in 
   determining the doctrine of impracticability did not excuse debtor's 
   failure to make a required payment on a timely basis; the parties' 
   settlement agreement was not subject to article 2 of Iowa's uniform 
   commercial code; nor is the agreement's default provision a liquidated 
   damages clause; issues raised for the first time on appeal would not be 
   considered.
