OPINION
John Millham appeals from the district court's order denying Millham's Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b) motion to set aside summary judgment and request for certification of a question to the Maryland Court of Appeals. Our review of the briefs, the appendix, and the district court's opinion discloses that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion because, as we held in Millham's appeal of the district court's prior order, the action was barred by the applicable statute of limitations.* See Millham v.
