   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  17-2228
   U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri - St. Louis   
   [PUBLISHED] [Wollman, Author, with Shepherd and Erickson, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Medical malpractice. Any error in limiting the 
   cross-examination of defendant's expert was harmless as the evidence in 
   the objected-to question was covered by other witnesses; defense counsel's 
   closing argument regarding the burden of was not so plainly unwarranted or 
   so injurious as to require a new trial; the correct burden of proof was 
   properly emphasized throughout the trial and in the jury instructions.
