Is there merit to the argument that relief was barred by the statute of limitations?
MultiRegion, United States of America
The following excerpt is from U.S. v. Ehrlich, 643 F.2d 634 (9th Cir. 1981):
Nor is there merit to the argument that relief was barred by the statute of limitations. Ehrlich claims 28 U.S.C. 2415(b) (1976) is applicable. It imposes a three-year limit on tort actions. Here, the substance of the claim sounds in contract, and if any limitations period applies, 1 it is six-years. 28 U.S.C. 2415(a) (1976). See United States v. Limbs, 524 F.2d 799, 801 (9th Cir. 1975). The action was timely brought.
