No. 77-1128.

586 F.2d 520 (1978)

UNITED TRANSPORTATION UNION, etc. et al., Plaintiffs-Appellants, v. FLORIDA EAST COAST RAILWAY COMPANY etc., Defendant-Appellee.

United States Court of Appeals, Fifth Circuit.

December 20, 1978.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Thomas W. McAliley, Miami, Fla., Allan Milledge, Earl G. Gallop, Miami, Fla., for plaintiffs-appellants.

Erle Phillips, John B. Shepard, Atlanta, Ga., for defendant-appellee.

Before GEWIN, COLEMAN and GOLDBERG, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.

This is an action under the Railway Labor Act. The issue on appeal concerns the application of a Florida statute of limitations. For the reasons expressed in Judge Scott's district court opinion, which is reproduced below, we hold that the Florida statute of limitations does bar the plaintiff-appellant's action. We therefore affirm the judgment of the district court.

AFFIRMED.
