Effort Alexander v. DeSoto County, Mississippi, et

Opinion

PER CURIAM: *

Appealing pro se, Effort Alexander challenges the dismissal, as barred by the Mississippi one-year statute of limitations, of his action against the defendant governmental units for placing an allegedly unjust cloud on. his property. In a short but sufficiently explanatory order, the district court determined that “Alexander has not alleged continual unlawful acts” but only ongoing injury. It is the acts, however, and not the injury, that triggered the running of limitations.

AFFIRMED.

*

Pursuant to 5th Cir. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
