Facts
P suffered serious injuries when her biological mother, D, negligently drove the car both women were occupying into the rear of another vehicle. At the time, P was seventeen years old. Following her eighteenth birthday, P filed a Complaint seeking damages in the amount of $100,000 for injuries she allegedly sustained in the December 8, 1992 automobile accident. Ds filed Motions to Dismiss. Robert McLean subsequently filed an independent Motion for Summary Judgment. P beseeched the court to recognize an exception to the parent-child immunity doctrine and allow emancipated children to file actions against their parents for injuries sustained in motor vehicle accidents occurring in minority between fifteen and eighteen years of age. The court declined to do so and entered judgment in favor of Ds. P appealed.
