Statute of Limitations - Non-Jurisdictional Affirmative Defense


Statute of Limitations

 

Non-Jurisdictional Affirmative Defense

 

 

 

 

That the statute of limitations has run is a non-jurisdictional affirmative defense, see Flagg v. Stryker Corp., 819 F.3d 132, 143 (5th Cir. 2016) (Haynes, J., concurring in part), not a jurisdictional pre-requisite. (Fn. 5).

 

 

 

 

(U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, May 1, 2023, Noble House, L.L.C. v. Certain Underwriters at Lloyd’s, London, Subscribing to Policy MS-S 5722 (Marine Package), Docket No. 22-20281)
