RUIZ, Associate Judge:
Plaintiff-appellant, Karen Johnson, appeals the trial court’s decision to grant the motion of defendant-appellee, Payless Shoe Source, Inc., to dismiss the complaint for lack of service of process, and on the ground that the action is barred by the statute of limitations. 1 After considering the arguments and reviewing the record, we conclude that the trial court erroneously dismissed plaintiffs action, and accordingly remand the case for trial or other proceedings consistent with this opinion.
