*221OPINION OF THE COURT

STAPLETON, Circuit Judge:

Plaintiff Appellant Madhat Zubi filed this civil action against AT & T Corporation, alleging that he was discharged because of his race in violation of 42 U.S.C. § 1981. The District Court dismissed the complaint, pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6), as barred by a two-year statute of limitations. Zubi argues that the District Court erred in applying a two-year statute of limitations instead of the four-year limitations period prescribed by 28 U.S.C. § 1658. We will affirm the judgment of the District Court.
