Opinion
No. BO-48.
February 11, 1987.
Appeal from the Circuit Court, Duval County, A.C. Soud, Jr., J.
Lance D. Crawford and Chalmers H. Barnes, of Barnes, Barnes Cohen, P.A., Jacksonville, for appellant.
Harris Brown and Robert B. Guild, of Mathews, Osborne, McNatt, Gobelman Cobb, Jacksonville, for appellee.
Appellant, a minor, sought to recover from his mother's insurer under the uninsured motorist provisions of a policy covering a motor vehicle of the mother other than the one involved in the accident. The policy covering the mother's vehicle involved in the accident contained an exclusion from coverage for children of the insured. We are without authority to abandon the parental immunity doctrine as an affirmative defense in litigation involving automobile accidents which result in injured children seeking payment from their parents' automobile insurance policies as 414 So.2d 1066 (Fla. 1982), Allstate Insurance Co. v. Boynton, 486 So.2d 552 (Fla. 1986) and Hoffman v. Jones, 280 So.2d 431 (Fla. 1973).
AFFIRMED.
