1Opinion of the Court

McLAUGHLIN, Circuit Judge:

Guarantors appeal from a summary judgment of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (Shirley Wohl Kram, J.). The district court held them liable for a defaulted government loan after rejecting, as a matter of law, their statute of limitations defense. On appeal, the guarantors renew their contention that (1) most of the government’s claim was time-barred as a matter of law under 28 U.S.C. § 2415(a), and add that (2) material disputes of fact precluded summary judgment on the rest of the claim. We disagree on both counts, and affirm.
