Description
Plaintiffs appeal from a summary judgment entered in the Northern District of Mississippi holding that their claims are barred by the Tennessee statute of limitations applicable to product liability actions, Tenn.Code Ann. §Â§ 29-28-103 et seq. (1980). The Tennessee statute is a statute of repose which imposes an absolute bar to actions brought more than ten years after the allegedly defective product was purchased. Appellants seek to have a federal statute of limitations, 28 U.S.C. § 2401(b), or a Mississippi statute of limitations, either Miss.Code Ann. § 15-1-49 or § 75-2-725, applied instead. Those statutes start the period of limitations running at the time the injury was, or should have been, discovered; under those statutes the Waynes action would be timely.
