    Dilip Jadeja et al., Appellants, v Alan B. Jones, Respondent. (And a Third-Party Action.)
   In an action to recover damages for legal malpractice, the plaintiffs appeal, as limited by their brief, from so much of an order of the Supreme Court, Nassau County (O’Brien, J.), dated April 27, 1990, as granted the defendant’s motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint.

Ordered that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.

The Supreme Court properly dismissed the plaintiffs’ complaint, which is premised on the defendant’s allegedly negligent representation of them in connection with the purchase of a restaurant business. The complaint is time barred as a result of the plaintiffs’ failure to institute this action within six years from the date that the defendant’s representation of them in connection with the subject transaction was concluded (see, Luk Lamellen U. Kupplungbau GmbH v Lerner, 166 AD2d 505). The continuous representation doctrine (see, Siegel v Kranis, 29 AD2d 477), does not apply under the circumstances of this case (cf., Boorman v Bleakley, Platt, Schmidt, Hart & Fritz, 88 AD2d 942).

We have considered the plaintiffs’ remaining contentions and find that none warrant a reversal of the order granting summary judgment in favor of the defendant. However, we decline to impose sanctions or to order the payment of costs as requested by the defendant pursuant to 22 NYCRR part 130. Thompson, J. P., Lawrence, Miller and Ritter, JJ., concur.
