Supreme Court of Minnesota September 14, 2000, C5-99-704 (Oanes v. Allstate Insurance Co.)

OPINION

PAGE, Justice.

The court of appeals affirmed dismissal of a suit for underinsured motorist (“UIM”) benefits because it was commenced more than six years after the accident in which the injury occurred. We are asked to determine whether the statute of limitations begins to run on a UIM claim on the date of the accident or at a later time.
