U.S. Court of Appeals across the nation are hearing more medical malpractice cases than past years. The upshot in cases is especially apparent in Maryland. 

In the Court of Appeals there, a judge is preparing a ruling on a trial judge's former ruling refusing to cap non-economic damages in a multimillion-dollar verdict. The trial judge argued that such caps are only permitted for cases that were previously submitted to arbitration. 

Advocates on both sides of the case are pressuring lawmakers to either institute more caps on medical malpractice cases or keep them uncapped.
