HURLEY, District Judge.
This matter comes before the Court on Defendants’ Rule 56 motion for summary judgment on Plaintiff’s cause of action for violation of his civil rights, pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. Defendants (sometimes hereinafter the ‘Village”) maintain that this cause of action is time-barred; alternatively, they attack Plaintiff’s civil rights claim on its substantive merits.
For the reasons discussed below, Plaintiff’s Section 1983 cause of action against the Village is dismissed on timeliness grounds. Plaintiffs pendant state law claims are also dismissed.
