Brown v. Atwell
Opinion
Barbara Brown appeals the district court’s1 dismissal, with prejudice, of her complaint arising out of a 2005 motor-vehicle accident, which was the subject of a lawsuit she brought in Missouri state court in 2007. The district court, adopting the report and recommendations of the magistrate judge, concluded that Brown’s complaint was barred under the Rooker-Feldman doctrine, see D.C. Ct. of App. v. Feldman, 460 U.S. 462, 103 S.Ct. 1303, 75 L.Ed.2d 206 (1983); Rooker v. Fid. Trust Co., 263 U.S. 413, 44 S.Ct. 149, 68 L.Ed. 362 (1923), and that, in any event, it was time-barred. Upon careful de novo review, we agree that the complaint was barred by the statute of limitations and affirm on that basis. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
