Andrew Krause, Petitioners v. Textron Financial Corporation, Respondent

Summary

The court held that the federal supplemental-jurisdiction tolling provision applies to state-law claims dismissed because a federal bankruptcy court lacked subject-matter jurisdiction. It relied on the plain text of the statute, which does not limit tolling to dismissals under the provision governing discretionary declines of supplemental jurisdiction, and remanded for further proceedings. The dissent argued that the court lacked conflict jurisdiction because the two district court decisions addressed different issues.
