Peter M. Rivera, etc., respondent.
Richard Malagiere, P.C., New York, N.Y., for petitioners,
Eric T. Schneiderman, Attorney General, New York, N.Y. (C. Michael Higgins and Seth Kupferberg of counsel), for respondent.
Proceeding pursuant to CPLR article 78 and Labor Law § 220(8) to review a determination and order of the Commissioner of the New York State Department of Labor dated August 6, 2014, which adopted the findings of fact, conclusions of law, and recommendations of a hearing officer, made after a hearing, inter alia, that the petitioners willfully failed to pay certain employees prevailing wages and supplements. Motion by the respondent to dismiss the proceeding as time-barred and cross motion by petitioners to deem the petition and notice of petition timely filed nunc pro tunc.
ORDERED that the respondent's motion is granted and the petitioners' cross motion is denied; and it is further,
ADJUDGED that the proceeding is dismissed, with costs.
The petitioners commenced the instant proceeding more than 30 days after service upon them of the notice of the filing of the challenged determination and order in the Office of the Commissioner of the New York State Department of Labor. Accordingly, we grant the respondent's motion to dismiss this proceeding as time-barred, deny the petitioners' cross motion, and dismiss the proceeding (see Labor Law § 220[8]; Matter of N.
