Before COFFIN, BOWNES and BREYER, Circuit Judges.


COFFIN, Circuit Judge.

Appellant Earl Johnson brought suit against his employer, General Electric Company, for discriminating against him on the basis of race. Johnson's complaint alleged three separate violations of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e — 2000e-17. The district court granted defendant's motion to dismiss all three counts as being untimely. We affirm, though on different grounds with regard to Count II.
