MEMORANDUM

Shane Beaudoin appeals pro se from the district court’s judgment dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging sexual assault by a prison physical therapist. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 . We review de novo both a district court’s dismissal on the basis of the statute of limitations, and its equitable tolling analysis where the relevant facts are undisputed. Jones v. Blanas, 393 F.3d 918, 926 (9th Cir. 2004); Cholla Ready Mix, Inc. v. Civish, 382 F.3d 969, 973 (9th Cir. 2004). We affirm.

The district court properly dismissed Beaudoin’s action as time-barred because the documents attached to Beaudoin’s complaint show that the last date that Beaudoin could have been sexually assaulted was in July 2009. See Cal. Civ. Proc. Code §§ 335.1 ; 352.1(a) (personal injury claims are subject to a two-year statute of limitations tolled for up to two years due to incarceration); Douglas v. Noelle, 567 F.3d 1103, 1109 (9th Cir. 2009) (§ 1983 claims are governed by forum state’s statute of limitations for personal injury actions, and they accrue when the plaintiff knows or should know of the injury that is the basis of the cause of action); Brown v. Valoff, 422 F.3d 926, 943 (9th Cir. 2005) (“[T]he applicable statute of limitations [is] tolled while a prisoner completes the mandatory exhaustion process.”); see also Gonzalez v. Planned Parenthood of L.A., 759 F.3d 1112, 1115 (9th Cir. 2014) (although the court accepts as true factual allegations in a complaint, it need not accept as true allegations that contradict matters incorporated by reference).

The district court properly found that Beaudoin was not entitled to equitable tolling for the period that he pursued his related tort claim under the California Tort Claims Act (“CTCA”) because that claim was untimely. See Lucchesi v. Bar-O Boys Ranch, 353 F.3d 691, 694-95 (9th Cir. 2003) (noting that state law governed questions regarding the tolling of the statute limitations for § 1983 claims and that plaintiffs’ § 1983 claim was equitably tolled during the time they pursued a timely filed state tort claim under the CTCA); Tarkington v. Cal. Unemployment Ins. Appeals Bd., 172 Cal.App.4th 1494 , 92 Cal.Rptr.3d 131, 140 (2009) (“What matters [for application of the equitable tolling doctrine] is whether the first claim was filed in a timely fashion ... ”).

Beaudoin’s reliance on the doctrine of substantial compliance is without merit because the doctrine cannot be invoked to excuse compliance with the statute of limitations.

AFFIRMED.
