J.H. GILLIS, P.J.
Plaintiff Rose Mary Pokriefka commenced the instant actions on July 30, 1962, on behalf of herself and as guardian of Margaret Pokriefka, a minor, against the defendant as owner of an automobile involved in an accident and operated by defendant's daughter. The minor Margaret Pokriefka was injured when the defendant's automobile, in which she was a passenger, ran into the rear of another automobile on the Edsel Ford expressway in Detroit.
At the time of the accident, on February 27, 1962, the plaintiff's minor and defendant's daughter were on their way home from classes at Marygrove College in Detroit.
The two girls were 18 years old at the time of the accident and pursuant to an agreement between themselves, plaintiff's daughter had paid defendant's daughter $2 a week for daily transportation to and from school. The complaint in each case alleged ordinary negligence rather than gross negligence and relied on the theory that since plaintiff's daughter had paid for the ride the guest act[*] did not apply.
At trial, defendant's daughter, then 21 years old, was called to testify, whereupon she stated she desired to disaffirm the contract. A tender of $22 was made to plaintiff and witnessed by the court. *536 The court then dismissed plaintiff's case on the basis of the holding in Brown v. Wood (1940), 293 Mich 148 (127 ALR 1436).
This Court considers itself bound by the ruling, of the Supreme Court in Brown, supra, and feels that the case is dispositive of the issues herein. A reading of the Brown Case will reveal substantially similar facts and issues.
Plaintiff's contention that the contract was not disaffirmed within a reasonable time after reaching majority is not well taken since a notice to that effect was filed in circuit court approximately 16 months prior to the 21st birthday of defendant's daughter.
Affirmed. Costs to appellee.
FITZGERALD, J., concurred.
The late Judge WATTS who was a member of the panel of judges to whom this case was submitted for determination took no part in this decision.
