MS: Case to Determine Constitutionality of Non-Economic Damages Cap Settles

As I reported here, yesterday the Mississippi Supreme Court was supposed to hear oral arguments on the constitutionality of the state’s $1M non-economic damages cap.  Instead the parties filed a joint motion on September 17th representing they have settled the case.  The court canceled oral arguments and gave the parties 90 days to finalize the settlement.  The Jackson Free Press has the story.
