"Defendant Brown lost control of the vehicle she was operating crossed the center line and collided with Plaintiff’s vehicle causing extensive damage to Plaintiff’s vehicle and serious personal injury to Plaintiff."

The suit is brought against Brown by and through her guardians, her father Bobby Brown and aunt Pat Houston and her conservator, Bedelia Hargrove.

The lawsuit also names the Jeep’s owner and the Ford Motor Company as defendants, alleging the Jeep’s owner didn’t maintain it properly and claiming that the plaintiff’s airbag and seatbelt didn’t deploy properly.

As a result of the collision, Eckerman suffered serious injuries and has incurred medical bills exceeding $730,000, the suit states.
