This does not preclude assertion of issues of claim preclusion, issue preclusion, judicial estoppel, law of the case or the like based on a decision of the Court rendered in a nonprecedential opinion or order.Milton A. SCHULTZ, Plaintiff-Appellant,v.The UNITED STATES, Defendant-Appellee.
No. 88-1544.
United States Court of Appeals, Federal Circuit.
Jan. 9, 1989.

Before MARKEY, Chief Judge, and EDWARD S. SMITH and ARCHER, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.

DECISION

1
The order of the United States Claims Court, No. 377-88C, dismissing Milton A. Schultz's (Schultz) complaint for lack of jurisdiction, is affirmed.

OPINION

2
We agree with the Claims Court that Schultz's claim was not brought within the six-year statute of limitations.  See 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2501 (1982).  That limitation "is a jurisdictional requirement attached by Congress as a condition of the government's waiver of soverign immunity and, as such, must be strictly construed."   Hopland Band of Pomo Indians v. United States, 855 F.2d 1573, 1576-77 (Fed.Cir.1988);  see Soriano v. United States, 352 U.S. 270, 276 (1957).  Schultz failed to allege a set of facts even remotely supporting a tolling of the statute.   See, e.g., Hopland Band, 855 F.2d at 1577-79 (drawing distinction between tolling of accrual and tolling the statute);  Japanese War Notes Claimants Ass'n of the Phillipines, Inc. v. United States, 373 F.2d 356, 358 (Ct.Cl.), cert. denied, 389 U.S. 971 (1967) (applying statute of limitations and tolling principles).
