Best Answer

Emancipation laws vary by state, and not all states have an emancipation statute. You need to check the laws of the state that you reside in. You may be able to file without your parents knowing about it, but they will find out, because the court will notify them. * No. In the few US states that allow emancipation of minors, parents and all persons with "just cause" must be informed of the action and given the opportunity to contest it at the judicial hearing.

Tennessee does not have an emancipation statute. Which means no, it isn't going to happen. And one of the standard requirements to obtain emancipation in those states that do have one is that the parents have to be notifiec.
