Description
McMILLIAN, Circuit Judge. Greg Weathers appeals from a final order entered in the United States District Court1 for the Eastern District of Arkansas dismissing his claims against his former employer, Bean Dredging Corporation (Bean), on grounds that the claims were time-barred by the applicable statute of limitations under the Jones Act, 46 U.S.C. § 688 et seq. Weathers v. Bean Dredging Corp., No. LR-C-92-212 (E.D. Ark. March 18, 1993) (memorandum opinion and order). For reversal, Weathers argues that the district court erred in failing to toll the three-year limitations period during the time his claims were pending in state court. For the reasons discussed below, we affirm the order of the district court.
