Kansas limits on pain and suffering damages upheld
Kansas Supreme Court upheld the 1988 cap of 250000 on non economic damages in medical malpractice suits. Amy Miller had challenged the cap after a 2002 case where doctors removed the wrong ovary. The court left intact the cap while ordering partial reinstatement of 100000 for future economic losses, a decision praised by business groups and Republicans but criticized by Miller and advocates for the disabled.

A constitutional amendment on the November ballot would let Kansas residents reduce boat property taxes aligning rates with Midwest norms. Proponents note current tax is 30 percent of boat value times county mill, making Kansas taxes far higher than Oklahoma and other states, potentially driving registrations out of state.
