• explaining that good cause under Rule 4(m) “requires[] at least as much as would be required to show excusable neglect”
• finding that “[w]hile the timely filing of Lambert’s first suit tolled § 2401(b)’s six-month statute of limitations, the district court’s order dismissing the suit without prejudice left Lambert in the same position as if the first suit had never been filed.”
• “The doctrine of equitable tolling preserves a plaintiff's claims when strict application of the statute of limitations would be inequitable.”
