But cf. Mitchell, 343 F.3d at 830 (noting the lack of punctuation indicating an inter-relationship between subparagraphs (ii), (iii), and (iv), and concluding that they instead should be treated independently); Keene, 127 F.Supp.2d at 776 (noting that had subparagraph (ii) been intended to apply to the whole paragraph, it could have been listed at the end, and suggesting that subpart (ii)(II), referring to successors in interest, does not apply to public agencies).

See Mitchell, 343 F.3d at 831 (“[I]t is well-settled that a public agency does not have to meet the 50 employee requirement to be considered an employer under the statute.”).

Bd. of Dentistry, 913 S.W.2d 446, 459 (Tenn. 1995)).2 Claim preclusion bars not only relitigating a claim previously adjudicated, it also bars litigating a claim or defense that should have been raised, but was not, in the prior suit.

(ECF No. 21 at PageID 146.) As Plaintiff points out, they are not “successors in interest to the County,” they did not “control the litigation,” and “nothing suggests the County adequately represented their interests in the prior action.” (Id. (citing Mitchell v. Chapman, 343 F.3d 811, 823 (6th Cir. 2003).) 102–03.)

As the Sixth Circuit has recognized, “conditions precedent are similar to statutes of limitations and a dismissal for failing to comply with a statute of limitations is a decision on the merits for claim preclusion purposes.” Mitchell v. Chapman, 343 F.3d 811, 820 (6th Cir. 2003).

“Bivens claims have a one year statute of limitations under Kentucky law.” Mitchell v. Chapman, 343 F.3d 811, 825 (6th Cir. 2003).
