[Unpublished]
Victoria L. Haynes appeals the district court’s 1 dismissal of her diversity legal malpractice action as barred by the applicable statute of limitations. Upon de novo review, see Dittmer Properties, L.P. v. FDIC, 708 F.3d 1011, 1016 (8th Cir. 2013) (standard of review for dismissal based on failure to state claim); Sloan v. Motorists Mut. Ins. Co., 368 F.3d 853, 854 (8th Cir. 2004) (standard of review for district court’s application of state law in diversity case), we agree that the action is time-barred. The judgment is affirmed. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
