1Opinion of the Court
BRIGHT, Circuit Judge.
The plaintiffs, Paula Renfroe and Marsha Smith, brought this action in federal district court in Missouri to recover damages allegedly sustained as a result of their in útero exposure to diethylstilbestrol (DES). All but one of the defendant drug companies joined in a motion for summary judgment, contending that the plaintiffs’ causes of action were barred by the applicable statutes of limitations. The district court1 denied the motion for summary judgment on Renfroe’s claims and partially granted the motion for summary judgment on Smith’s claims. We affirm.
