ORDER

We affirm substantially for the reasons set forth by the District Court in its thorough and well-reasoned order of March 28, 1991 granting summary judgment. Furthermore, we do not find a basis for suspending the normal operation of the one year statute of limitations. We also note without deciding that the action is probably barred in light of Martin v. Wilks, 490 U.S. 755, 762 n. 2, 109 S. Ct. 2180, 2184 n. 2, 104 L. Ed. 2d 835 (1989).

AFFIRMED.
