Description

Ryan Nguyen was born to Nghia Nguyen and Darla Nguyen at Sacred Heart Medical Center (SHMC) in Spokane. Tragically, Ryan suffered severe congenital abnomalities. The Nguyens disagreement with Ryan's medical care providers eventually led to a court order restoring dialysis treatment. They eventually sued SHMC, SHMC's ethicist, and the treating physicians under various state torts and federal statutory bases, but not specifically outrage. The trial court granted summary judgment to all defendants on all theories presented by the Nguyens after the Nguyens' trial counsel limited the liability theories by concessions. The Nguyens argue the concessions should not bind them, an outrage theory was not precluded by the summary judgment, and alternatively outrage may be raised for the first time on appeal. We reject these arguments and affirm.
