Legal Question in Family Law in Indiana

Re: need answers

Indiana has no emancipation statute for your circumstances. You will need to hire an attorney as there is a process available, but you will need to convince the court that:

. The petitioning minor wishes to be free from parental control and protection and no longer requires control and protection;

2. The petitioning minor understands the consequences of being free from parental control and protection

3. The petitioning minor has sufficient money for the child's own support; and

4. The petitioning minor has an acceptable plan for independent living.

Without a statute to reference, it is difficult to gauge what a judge might deem sufficient as a basis for emancipation. An Indiana family lawyer may be able to advise you.

You have not indicated whether your parents mistreat you or are irrespponsibloe as parents. If so, you may wish to contact Child and Family Services.

Good luck.
