Court of Special Appeals of Maryland.

March 30, 1990.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Ellen Luff, Gambrills (Gill Cochran, Annapolis, on the brief), for appellants.

No brief or appearance by appellee's counsel.

Argued before BISHOP, ALPERT and ROSALYN B. BELL, JJ.


ROSALYN B. BELL, Judge.

The facts before us set out a cause of action for parents who have lost the services of their minor child; the parents also claim a loss of companionship and society. We agree with them that there is a valid claim for the loss of services and necessary expenses, but will leave it to the Legislature to provide parents with a cause of action for the loss of their minor child's society and companionship, if it determines this is advisable.
