Egbert v. Penk

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM

This was an action for personal injuries brought by a child against her mother, inter alia.1 The mother’s liability was allegedly based upon simple negligence. The trial court granted summary judgment to the mother. The child appeals. We affirm, based upon the established doctrine that an action will not lie in these circumstances for mere negligence. Cowgill v. Adm’r v. Boock, Adm’r, 189 Or 282, 218 P2d 445 (1950).

Affirmed.

Other aspects of the case are not before us.
