Description
Mai Chi Nguyen, Tranh Nguyen, and Tuyet Nguyen (plaintiffs) appeal from three prejudgment and postjudgment orders entered in this medical malpractice action. Tranh Nguyen and Tuyet Nguyen, the plaintiff parents, appeal from a nonsuit order as to their causes of action for negligent infliction of severe emotional distress. The trial court found the plaintiff parents had failed to comply with the Tort Claims Act. (Gov. Code, § 810 et seq.) Mai Chi Nguyen, the minor plaintiff, appeals from an order reducing the jury's damage award in her favor pursuant to Civil Code section 3333.2, a provision of the Medical Injury Compensation Reform Act of 1975 (MICRA). All three plaintiffs appeal from a purported postjudgment order determining the manner in which attorney fees were to be paid to plaintiffs' counsel. We find the order of nonsuit was properly entered and discuss that issue in the published portion of this opinion. Also, we affirm the order reducing the jury's damage award. In addition, we conclude no appealable order concerning the payment of attorney fees was entered.
