The exhaustion requirement is mandatory, however, and a prisoner’s “complaint that fails to allege the requisite exhaustion of remedies is tantamount to one that fails to state a claim upon which relief may be granted.” Id. at 1209-10 (quotation omitted); accord Simmat, 413 F.3d at 1238. Next, Mr. Tauer contends that the deadline for filing a prison grievance (fifteen days from the date of discovery, but never longer than one year) impermissibly conflicts with the statute of limitations for filing suit under § 1983 and Kansas state law.

Philpot, 420 F.3d 1158,
