   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  18-3126
   U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri - Kansas City   
[PUBLISHED] [Kobes, Author, with Shepherd and Grasz, Circuit Judges] Civil case - Federal Employers' Liability Act. The district court did not abuse its discretion by refusing to give a specific instruction based on Eighth Circuit Manual of Model Instruction 15.70's optional list of damages where it concluded that plaintiff's evidence was not sufficient to support a claim of future damages; giving the generic instruction did not impact plaintiff's substantial rights, and the instruction given permitted the jury to consider the full range of alleged damages, including future damages.
