Show Notes
Kansas Senate Bill 413 sparks controversy as it aims to restrict lawyers from suggesting dollar amounts for pain, suffering, or emotional distress in civil lawsuits. Supporters argue it curbs excessive jury awards, while opponents, including families affected by contaminated heart surgery devices, fear it limits their ability to fully explain losses to juries. The bill now heads to the House, with a House committee hearing canceled and no makeup date set.
