Emancipation In Ohio Laws Urgent.

What are the laws on Ohio emancipation?

You cannot “become emancipated” simply by petitioning the court. Ohio law does not allow for such a request, although some other states do allow minor children to file a petition asking the court find that they are emancipated.

In Ohio, emancipation issues generally arise in the context of child support cases. For example, your parents may ask the court to terminate their support obligations under ORC 3119.88. During this proceeding, the court may issue a finding that you are emancipated. However, unless the court finds that you are emancipated, your parents may be held responsible for your actions even if your parents are no longer obligated to support you.

The Ohio School Board website notes there are no official emancipation court proceedings, but instead emancipation is a common law doctrine. Minors usually cannot be emancipated before they become adults at age 18, but in the state of Ohio there are some exceptions that can lead to a minor's early emancipation.

Getting married is one way to become an emancipated minor in Ohio. This applies to females only, as males must be 18 to get married; females, however, can marry at the age of 16 with parental consent, according to Ohio Legal Services.

Join the military, and in Ohio you are considered emancipated from your parents.

Receive written and/or oral consent from a parent and you are emancipated in Ohio, according to the Ohio School Boards. The Ohio School Boards website also notes that emancipation can occur by inference, as well, if a parent allows a child to move out and support herself.

Emancipation in Ohio laws? Urgent.?

I'm 16 years old from Ohio. My situation is mainly centered around the fact that my mother (legal guardian) is living another city away, about an hour and a half. I live here with my grandmother who is extremely mentally abusive. I'm about to start working a part-time job and I'm also currently apart of an online school with no set schedule. I want to be able to move out and stay with someone else that is not immediate family because I don't have much immediate family. Problem is, I can't and don't want to necessarily move in with my mom because of her current living situations and the distance especially because I am soon to begin work. So I guess what my question is, How possible is it for me to begin some sort of emancipation process if at all possible? Or what could I do in my situation? What are my options?

Emancipation laws in Ohio?

in most states it is very hard to get emancipated just cause you want to leave home. if you are being abused it is a different story..

you have to have a place to live (or an about place to live waiting on the courts ok)

and it can NOT be with a friend or a boyfriend OR roommate of any kind, .
you have to have a job, you have to have a bank account, to pay bills, you have to have a way back and forth to school and work, (this is why you have to be at least 16, so you can drive, you can live in a major city with public transportation.. BUT it has to be 24 hour running..

you have to have a good enough reason to move out and be emancipated AND NOT just cause you and your parents don't get alone or you just want.. AND if can NOT be because you are pregnant, because that means in a few months you will NOT be able to support yourself.. and you can NOT say the father of the baby will cause that again means YOU will NOT be supporting yourself.

and you can NOT talk about going on any kind of state aid, (medical might be different cause not all jobs offer insurance, ) but you can't go on food stamps or anything like that,, (NOT that you can't if you get emancipated, ) it just can not be a way for you to support yourself if you leave home..


EDIT...... LYN is right.. unless you are being abused by your parents or it has something to do with the military or them moving and you want to stay in your currant school, (don't know about the school part). you can NOT use the don't get along with parents as a reason FOR THE COURTS to move out.. (NOt that it is not a good enough reason in general,) BUT we are talking about the courts ok'ing it..

and not that you want to hear it, but being an adult means getting along with others you don't like.

Ohio laws: emancipation of a minor?

Can you provide a link to the law you need help deciphering? From everything I find, there are no laws on minor emancipation in Ohio.

This doesn't necessarily mean it is not possible. Many states do not have laws on the books about it, but courts have still granted it in those states. You will have to go to court and prove that it will be better for you to be on your own than under the care of your parents, another relative, or foster care. You also need to show that you are financially capable of taking care of yourself, and you fully understand all that is involved in taking care of yourself (rent/mortgage, utilities, furnishings. medical/dental care, maintenance, transportation, food, clothing, emergencies that may arise, and so on and so on). It's very rare in states that have laws on emancipation, and even rarer in states that do not. It's also not a quick process, and (assuming you are now 17), you will probably turn 18 and be emancipated due to this reason before you get emancipated as a minor.

Consult a lawyer in your area for more information and to help you with the process if you wish to continue.

Ohio emancipation question?

To get emancipated, you will need to prove:
1. You are mature enough to manage your own affairs. This is demonstrated by things like a clean criminal record, good grades etc.
2. You can support yourself financially. You will need to show income and anticipated expenses.It is HIGHLY unlikely you have the income to rent an apartment, pay all utilities and put food on your table. You can NOT draw any public assistance if emancipated.
3. That your welfare is better served by not being with your parents. Hating mom's rules will not meet this criteria. Emancipation is not used to resolve issues with abuse. That is the function of the foster care system. If you apply for emancipation and prove abuse, the judge will place you with family if possible. If that is not possible you would become a ward of the state and enter the foster care system.
4. That there are no other reasonable solutions to the issues at home.

In the states that actually allow emancipation you will need to be at least 16.

You will need to hire a lawyer to get you though the process.

You would need to file in a court that has jurisdiction over your parents or custodial parent if you do not live with both.

Only about 1 percent of emancipation petitions nationwide are granted.

Emancipation laws?

I'm sorry to tell you that you are correct, Ohio law does not with a couple of exceptions, in Ohio, emancipation can occur before 18, or graduation from high school if a child turns 18 in his or her senior year, if before that time if the child gets married or joins the military service, but if the marriage is dissolved or minor is discharged from the service and still under the age of 18 the custody automatically reverts back to the parent who originally had custody.


While many people think that someone under 18 can go to court and “get emancipated,” Ohio law does not provide for such a court order.

As of December 1, 2006, only 24 states do have laws that allow emancipation.
