Legal Question in Family Law in California

is she automatically emancipated

I have a 17 yr old daughter who had a baby at 16. Aproximately 4 1/2 weeks ago moved in with her 18 yr old boyfriend. I just found out today that they traveled to Oklahoma and got married(without parental consent). Is she automatically emancipated having a baby or is there something we can do?

Marriage by law results in the child becoming emancipated. You may have to file a motion with the court to stop a wage assignment for child support for her.
