United States Tenth Circuit

Dismissal of a Bivens claim for false arrest and false imprisonment is affirmed where: 1) since there was a judicial determination of probable cause on January 28, 2005, plaintiff became lawfully detained pursuant to legal process at that point, and the statute of limitations began to run on his claim; 2) his complaint was not filed until July 9, 2007, and thus was untimely; and 3) the district court correctly concluded that plaintiff did not present any factual circumstances that would justify equitable tolling.
