If by "involved" you mean some kind of overt sexual activity, it falls under several different laws on sexual offenses. If however one does not mean sexual activity (that is, actions are confined to dating, hugging and kissing only), there is no specific law about that.

Regarding sexual activity, if the minor is 16 or older, there is no restriction (unless you work at the minor's school or are soliciting them for prostitution). If they are under 16, you must be within 4 years of their age, or you are in violation of one of four different laws: Sexual offense in the second, third or fourth degree, or Rape in the second degree.
