Outcome
District court's dismissal of plaintiff's USERRA claim as time-barred under the four-year statute of limitations in 28 U.S.C. § 1658(a) was affirmed, though the court noted that Congress subsequently enacted the Veterans' Benefits Improvement Act eliminating the limitations period for future claims.
