This action to recover for alleged conversion of personal property is clearly barred by the 4-year limitation period set forth in OCGA § 9-3-32. The running of the statute was not tolled by the filing of a previous suit in federal court to recover for the same alleged injury. See Blaustein v. Harrison, 160 Ga. App. 256 (286 SE2d 758) (1981); Henson v. Columbus Bank & Trust Co., 144 Ga. App. 80 (4) (240 SE2d 284) (1977). It follows that the trial court did not err in granting summary judgment to the appellees.

Judgment affirmed.
