1Opinion of the Court
WELLS, Judge.
Carla Branch, the plaintiff below appeals from an order denying her motion to amend her complaint, effectively dismissing her personal injury action with prejudice. Because we find that the court below did not lack jurisdiction to entertain her motion, we reverse.
This action stems from an auto accident which occurred in November of 2006 in which Branch, while a passenger in a car driven by a co-worker during a business trip, was seriously injured. Branch and her co-worker reside in Barbados where their employer, First Caribbean International Bank is located.
