Text: [¶ 2] WMC states the issues for this Court's determination as follows: 1. In light of the trial court's prior ruling [t]hat [Wyoming Medical Center (WMC)] does not have any obligation to pay [Phico Insurance Company (Phico)] any deductible on claims settled by the Wyoming Insurance Guaranty Association [(WIGA),] is WIGA's complaint in the same court to collect those same deductibles from WMC under a canceled professional liability insurance policy on behalf of the liquidated insurer, Phico, barred by the doctrine of res judicata? 2. Is WMC entitled to a setoff for attorneys' fees incurred in the defense of various covered claims? WIGA contends the district court properly granted summary judgment in its favor and res judicata does not apply.
