VAN OOSTERHOUT, Senior Circuit Judge.

The sole issue presented by these appeals by the United States of America is whether the trial court erred in holding that plaintiff's medical malpractice claim was not barred by the two-year limitation period of 28 U.S.C. § 2401(b). Plaintiff in his brief specifically agrees that the only issue raised by these appeals is when the medical malpractice cause of action accrued under 28 U.S.C. § 2401(b).
