OPINION OF THE COURT

The order of the Appellate Division should be affirmed with costs. Plaintiffs had "timely awareness of the facts requiring [them] to make further inquiry before the statute of limitations expired," and an equitable estoppel defense to the statute of limitations is therefore "inappropriate as a matter of law" ( see Putter v North Shore Univ. Hosp., 7 NY3d 548, 553-554).

On review of submissions pursuant to section 500.11 of the Rules of the Court of Appeals ( 22 NYCRR 500.11), order affirmed, with costs, in a memorandum.
