HB 4806 is a Texas bill introduced in 2025 that limits damages in civil lawsuits, particularly personal injury cases. It caps medical expenses at amounts paid or 150% of median costs and sets noneconomic damages limits, like $250,000 for bodily injury pain. It requires unanimous jury agreement for punitive damages. Supporters say it prevents excessive awards and lowers insurance costs. Critics argue it undercompensates victims and favors corporations. The bill is pending in committee as of May 7, 2025.
