Aaron M. Goldsmith, New York, NY, for appellant.

Gordon Rees Scully Mansukhani, LLP, New York, NY (Joseph Salvo of counsel), for respondents.

In an action to recover damages for breach of contract, the plaintiff appeals from an order of the Supreme Court, Suffolk County (Carmen Victoria St. George, J.), dated December 9, 2020. The order granted the defendants' motion pursuant to CPLR 3211 (a) to dismiss the complaint.

Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.

The Supreme Court properly granted the defendants' motion to dismiss the complaint on the ground it was barred by the statute of limitations (see CPLR 3211 [a] [5]). To the extent that the complaint purports to state a cause of action sounding in breach of contract, this action was commenced more than six years after the wrongdoing alleged in the complaint, and is therefore time-barred (see CPLR 213 [2]). To the extent that the complaint purports to state a cause of action sounding in fraud, this action was commenced more than six years after the wrongdoing alleged in the complaint, and is therefore time-barred (see CPLR 213 [8]). Even accepting the plaintiff's contention that he did not discover the purported fraud until several years after the wrongdoing alleged in the complaint, this action was commenced more than two years after that alleged discovery, and is therefore time-barred (see id.; Cusimano v Schnurr, 137 AD3d 527, 531 [2016]).

In light of our determination, we need not reach the parties' remaining contentions. Dillon, J.P., Duffy, Christopher and Zayas, JJ., concur.
