Legal Question in Juvenile Dependency in Nebraska
Emancipation
I need to know the systematic process(es) neccessary to obtain legal emancipation before the automatic age of 19 and around the age of 18, prior a move to another state. Please include the time frames most likely to pass before emancipation is complete or in session of completion.
Thank You.

Re: Emancipation
Nebraska has no system for emancipation through the courts as a direct matter. Emancipation in Nebraska is determined by the facts; namely, whether the minor lives independently with the approval or acquiences of the minor's parents/guardians.
