1Opinion of the Court
LEVIN H. CAMPBELL, Chief Judge.
This appeal is from a judgment of the district court, 551 F.Supp. 1128, holding that an application to confirm an arbitration award, brought by representatives of the Industrial Union of Marine and Shipbuilding Workers and its Local 5 (the “union”) against General Dynamics Corporation (the “company”), is time barred. The district court ruled that in the absence of an appropriate Massachusetts state statute of limitations, the one-year statute of limitations set out in the United States Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 9, is applicable.
We disagree with the district…
