The Missouri statute of limitations for most personal injury claims is 5 years (Mo. Rev. Stat. § 516.120). Claims against a government body usually run on a much shorter separate notice deadline. Missing either one generally ends the claim regardless of its merits, so the filing date matters more than almost any other early decision.
