Can you leave your house at 16 without parent consent in michigan?

Answer 1

If you are reported missing, then yes. You will be entered into NCIC, a national crime database and a bolo (be on the lookout for) notice will be put out to area officers. If located, you will be brought home. * Only if the parents file a report. An absentee minor is designated as one whose whereabouts is known, in this type of case the parents would need to get a court order for a minor who is at least 17, unless that person is considered to be in an unsuitable enviroment. A missing person report is treated differently, the authorities are notified to watch for the minor but they will not conduct an active search unless foul play is indicated or a court order is issued. Leaving home is NOT a criminal offense it is considered a status violation of a minor. The minor would not be entered into the NCIC as he or she has not committed a crime.

Answer 2

"A child's right is that they cannot be touched without a legal parent are guardian,

however , in school, a child's rights are subject to school rules and regulations.

Still, a minor has rights, even in school. It is also important to know the difference between a "pat down" or "frisk" and a "search".

In a "pat down" or "frisk", an official may conduct a brief pat down of a person (minor or otherwise) for weapons only, if they have a reasonable suspicion the individual is armed. In a school setting, this standard of reasonable suspicion also applies to searches. This reasonable suspicion must be articulated, specifically, as to why the official felt the need to search the person.

A search, under most circumstances, requires probable cause or a warrant. As stated above, students may be searched in a school setting using reasonable suspicion. However, with probable cause, a peace officer may search a minor without first getting consent from the parent. A peace officer may also question a minor without consent. The minor still has the right to refuse to answer questions and may request an attorney. At this point, the officer should stop the questioning.

As far as searches, yes - the police can search a minor if they have a warrant or probable cause, even without the consent of a parent. If the officer has reasonable suspicion that the minor may be armed, the officer may frisk the minor and attempt to locate any weapons. The officer does not require the consent of parents to do this.

Incidentally, the Supreme Court has ruled that a minor has NO CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT to have a parent present during questioning. Also, a parent CANNOT invoke a minor's rights for the minor. Only the minor can invoke his/her rights. The only difference the police must observe when detaining a minor is that the minor must be "Mirandized" immediately upon detention - even if no arrest is going to be made.
