   MEMORANDUM

Plaintiffs appeal the district court’s dismissal of their antitrust action as barred by the statute of limitations. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, review de novo, Williams v. Boeing Co., 517 F.3d 1120, 1135 (9th Cir.2008), and affirm.

The district court correctly ruled that the limitations period for this class action was not tolled by a prior class action. Robbin v. Fluor Corp., 835 F.2d 213, 214 (9th Cir.1987). Nor does Catholic Soc. Servs., Inc. v. INS, 232 F.3d 1139 (9th Cir.2000) (en banc), compel a different result. None of the peculiar reasons justifying tolling in that case is present in this case. Id. at 1147—49.

AFFIRMED.
