Federal Election Commission v. Larry R. Williams

Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit

1Opinion of the Court

BEEZER, Circuit Judge:

Larry R. Williams appeals the district court’s denial of his motion to dismiss and grant of a motion for summary judgment in favor of the Federal Election Commission (FEC). Williams argues, inter alia, that the FEC action is time-barred under 28 U.S.C. § 2462, and that he is not liable for civil penalties under the Federal Election Campaign Act (FECA), 2 U.S.C. §§ 431^55.

The district court had jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1331. Williams timely filed a notice of appeal. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. §§ 1291. We hold that 28 U.S.C. § 2462 applies, and we reverse.
