PASSAGE
Reina, a citizen of State A, bought a ladder in State A and was seriously injured when it collapsed at her home in State A. Peak Tools, Inc., is incorporated in State C and has its principal place of business in State C. Reina sued Peak in the U.S. District Court for the District of State A, asserting only a state-law product-liability claim. Jurisdiction is based solely on diversity. The suit was filed two years and five months after the injury. State A has a two-year statute of limitations for product-liability actions. Peak moved to dismiss; Reina responded that the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the district court's local rules do not contain a two-year filing deadline and that, alternatively, a federal equitable-tolling rule should excuse the late filing because Peak concealed the ladder's defect.
Which legal issue is most central to resolving Peak's motion?
