North Carolina Republican lawmakers are attempting to use their new majority status in North Carolina to advance another policy goal: Medical malpractice reform that they contend would bring down costs for doctors and other businesses.
It is scheduled to be filed this week. The scope: to limit non-economic damages in malpractice cases and divide such trials into two parts — for questions of liability and monetary damages.
Will monitor this development and keep you updated.
Best regards,

For pros and cons of limitations with respect to tort law, read John Grisham's "The Appeal" :-)
