Extracting settlement money early

Im graduating this june, and I plan to study abroad next year. I have settlement money in a cd account, in which I need a court order to extract early (It says I can not get the money until Im 18, which is not until Aug 04) I wish to use the money for my study abroad program, and the first payments are due this June. What do I need to file in order to petition to get my money early? Thank you so much for your help!

You need to file a Petition To Withdraw Funds From Minors'Account. These are usually granted if the need for dunds is based is using the money for educational purposes.

Good luck to you!
