Description
The plaintiff filed suit against the defendant for retaliatory discharge and employment discrimination. The defendant moved to dismiss the plaintiff's claim on the ground that the one-year statute of limitations had expired. The trial court denied the defendant's motion, holding that there were genuine issues of material fact as to whether the "discovery rule" applied. The Court of Appeals reversed, holding that the discovery rule does not apply - and should not be extended - to employment-type cases like the plaintiff's. We affirm, though under a different rationale, the Court of Appeals' holding that the trial court erred in concluding that the discovery rule prevents dismissal. However, we reverse and remand to the trial court to consider whether the statute of limitations is tolled by the doctrine of equitable estoppel.
