Karen and Todd Setunsky appeal a summary judgment dismissing their damages claim against Claim Management Services, Inc. (“CMS”), Ansul Incorporated, Grinnell Corporation Medical and Dental Plan, Tyco Laboratories, Inc. and Employee Benefit Trust (collectively “the managed care defendants”). The Setunskys argue that the trial court erred by concluding that their claim against the managed care defendants is preempted by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, 29 U.S.C. secs. 1001-1461 (ERISA).
We reject their arguments and affirm the judgment.
This opinion will not be published.
