The legal age of majority in Missouri is eighteen. Missouri has a addendum to the Juvenile Court Codes which reads an "adult" is anyone who is of the age of seventeen. This law pertains to criminal court procedures ONLY and designates how a person of seventeen years should be adjudicated concerning specified criminal matters. It does not supercede the legal age of majority law.
