Description
SCHOLFIELD, J.*fn* -- Robert E. Hill appeals the trial court's order granting summary judgment to the State of Washington Department of Transportation and the Washington State Ferries. The order dismissed Hill's maritime claims of negligence and unseaworthiness, his claim of constructive discharge, and his request for declaratory relief because the claims were time barred and Hill failed to exhaust his administrative and statutory remedies. Hill argues that the trial court erred by concluding that his claims were time barred because the continuing tort doctrine had tolled the statute of limitations for his maritime claims, there is no statute of limitations for declaratory actions, and the State never challenged his constructive discharge claim on the ground that it was time barred. Hill also contends the court erred by concluding he failed to pursue his claims through established grievance procedures because his claims did not arise from the applicable collective bargaining agreement (CBA). Finally, Hill argues that the trial court erred by refusing to strike two declarations supporting the State's motion for summary judgment. We affirm.
