Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.
A 1996 amendment to CPLR 3212 (a), effective January 1, 1997, requires the making of a motion for summary judgment within 120 days after the filing of the note of issue ( see, CPLR 3212 [a], as amended by L 1996, ch 492). The appellants' motion for summary judgment was properly denied as untimely, since the note of issue was filed prior to the effective date of the amendment, and the motion was made more than 120 days after the effective date of the amendment ( see, Krug v. Jones, 252 A.D.2d 574; Phoenix Garden Rest. v. Chu, 245 A.D.2d 164; see also, Wade v. Byung Yang Kim, 250 A.D.2d 323).
The factual assertions underlying the appellants' claim that "good cause" exists for the delay in moving for summary judgment are dehors the record ( see, Leis v. Finkelstein, 205 A.D.2d 738). The appellants failed to move in the Supreme Court for leave to make a late motion for summary judgment on good cause shown pursuant to CPLR 3212 (a).
