The Missouri Supreme Court struck down a $350,000 cap on jury awards for pain and suffering in medical malpractice cases. The Missouri Supreme Court determined that the cap violated a patient’s right to a jury trial. The Court held that the cap “infringes on the jury’s constitutionally protected purpose of determining the amount of damages sustained by an injured party.” It is incredibly important to protect the rights of the victims of malpractice throughout the country.
