Task: songer_geniss

What follows is an opinion from a United States Court of Appeals.
Your task is to identify the issue in the case, that is, the social and/or political context of the litigation in which more purely legal issues are argued. Put somewhat differently, this field identifies the nature of the conflict between the litigants. The focus here is on the subject matter of the controversy rather than its legal basis. Consider the following categories: "criminal" (including appeals of conviction, petitions for post conviction relief, habeas corpus petitions, and other prisoner petitions which challenge the validity of the conviction or the sentence), "civil rights" (excluding First Amendment or due process; also excluding claims of denial of rights in criminal proceeding or claims by prisoners that challenge their conviction or their sentence (e.g., habeas corpus petitions are coded under the criminal category); does include civil suits instituted by both prisoners and callable non-prisoners alleging denial of rights by criminal justice officials), "First Amendment", "due process" (claims in civil cases by persons other than prisoners, does not include due process challenges to government economic regulation), "privacy", "labor relations", "economic activity and regulation", and "miscellaneous".

PER CURIAM.
This is an appeal from a decision of the district court dismissing the claim of plaintiffs in an action for injuries sustained in Virginia. The sole question involved is whether the action is barred by the statute of limitations in Virginia. If it is then, under the borrowing statute in Pennsylvania, it is barred here, Pa. Stat.Ann. tit. 12, § 39, Purdon 1953. If barred in the state court it is also barred in federal court in a case depending upon diversity for federal jurisdiction as this one does. Guaranty Trust Co. v. York, 1945, 326 U.S. 99, 65 S.Ct. 1464, 89 L.Ed. 2079.
Interpretation of the Virginia legislation upon this subject is not too easy a task but has been well done by Judge Van Dusen who heard the case in the district court. D.C.E.D.Pa.1956, 141 F. Supp. 592. We have nothing to add to his analysis of the Virginia decisions and statutes.
The judgment of the district court will be affirmed.
