Plaintiff Rick L. Clark, a South Dakota prisoner, filed a complaint alleging a violation of 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The district court1 dismissed Clark's complaint pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(d) on the basis that Clark failed to file the action within the time period allowed by statute. See S.D. Codified Laws Ann. § 15-2-15.2 (1992) (three year statute of limitations for filing federal civil rights action). The district court then denied Clark's subsequent motion for reconsideration. Clark appeals. After reviewing the record we find no error in the district court's decision and we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
The Honorable John B. Jones, Chief Judge, United States District Court for the District of South Dakota
