1Opinion of the Court

SACK, Circuit Judge.

This appeal stems from the efforts of the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) to recover interest it mistakenly paid on a company’s deposit in the nature of a cash bond at the time the IRS returned the cash bond to the company. The government eventually brought suit against the company to recover the interest. The only issue on appeal is whether the government’s action was timely. We conclude that it was. We therefore affirm the judgment of the district court ordering the company to return the interest to the government.
