To prevent the limitations period on those claims from expiring, 28 USC section 1367(d) requires state courts to toll the period while a supplemental claim is pending in federal court. In 1994, Susan Jinks filed a federal-court action against Richland County, South Carolina. The District Court granted the county summary judgment and declined to exercise jurisdiction over Jinks's state-law claims. Jinks then filed the supplemental claims in state court and won. In reversing, the Supreme Court of South Carolina found the state-law claims time-barred. Although they would not have been barred under section 1367(d)'s tolling rule, the court held section 1367(d) unconstitutional as applied to claims brought in state court against a State's political subdivisions.</p> <p>Is 28 USC section 1367(d), which requires state statute of limitations to be tolled for the period during which a plaintiff's cause of action had previously been pending in federal court, constitutional as applied to lawsuits brought against a State's political subdivisions?</p> 02-258_20030305-argument http://www.oyez.org/cases/2000-2009/2002/2002_02_258/argument/ supreme, court, oyez, rehnquist Wed, 05 Oct 1977 12:00:00 -0500 No details yet.

The police searched the passenger compartment because they suspected Long's vehicle contained weapons potentially dangerous to the officers.
