The opinion

QUINN, Associate Judge

(dissenting).

I think the granting of summary judgment by the trial court should be affirmed because appellant’s claim was plainly unfounded under existing law in this jurisdiction based upon the Thompson and Spector cases cited by the majority. If there is to he a revaluation of the rule on interspousal immunity from tort, I believe it should be made by the United States Court of Appeals for this circuit rather than by the trial court.
