Summary
The Mississippi Supreme Court denied rehearing, withdrew its prior opinion, substituted this opinion, and affirmed dismissal of Moton's claims. It held that his common-law tort claims were subject to the Mississippi Tort Claims Act's one-year limitations period and presuit-notice requirements, his constitutional claims were subject to the general three-year limitations period, and his malicious-prosecution claim was subject to a one-year limitations period. All claims were untimely.
