Mealey's (February 12, 2019, 10:34 AM EST) -- SAN FRANCISCO — The Ninth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals affirmed Jan. 31 that there is no minority tolling of the Federal Tort Claims Act’s (FTCA) statute of limitations and that a plaintiff’s minority alone during a wrongful death action brought by his mother after his father’s death does not merit equitable tolling of the statute of limitations (Anthony K. Booth v. United States, No. 16-17084, 9th Cir., 2019 U.S. App. LEXIS 3174)....
