Not really. The child of two married individuals is legally considered to be the child of both spouses. If the child is beyond the age at which the parents have legal responsibility for him/her, the legality of paternity is almost entirely irrelevant. If is mostly just a social/family issue. The parent can refuse to see the child, refuse to speak to the child, etc.
The only remaining legal detail is writing the child out of the parents will, living will, etc., so that the child cannot make end-of-life decisions for the parent or inherit any of the parent's estate.
Sue for child support? That would be up to the mother to do. And if she did sue, she would be the one to get the money if she won, not the young adult child since the mother was the one who raised and supported the child.
The court can not order a paternity test after the child turns 18. The child is considered an adult at 18 years old.
You are legally an adult in Maryland at 18.
when you can prove that you are old enough to take on adult responsibly. Such as paying bills making sure you have all the household items needed,and so on.
No. You are a minor with a baby. 18 is the age you become an adult.
Is this a trick question? If the child is legally an adult (and therefore 'emancipated') then there is no "custodial" parent.
no
In New York, you are legally considered an adult at the age of 18.
Legally you are not. Becoming a parent wont change that.
The residence is the property of the parent's - you have no legal "standing" to continue to occupy their residence. the law only requires that your parents support you and be responsible for you until you legally become an adult. Once you become an adult you become a resident of their domicile at their "sufferance." and you can be invited to 'quit the premises' at any time.
Only if the minor has legally been "emancipated" by action of the courts.
If the child is 18 or older, and is not in custodial care of the parent by the courts, they're legally an adult, and the parent has no legal right to lay claim to their tax returns.
In the state of Texas a person becomes legally designated an adult at the age of 18. In most cases the parent(s) will no longer be legally or financially responsible for the child (an exception could be a child support order that stipulates a different age). If the parents so choose they may request their "adult" child to move from their residence.
At the same age in every other state in the U.S.A - 18 or when the parent legally grants EMANCIPATION to the minor in question, which requires the adult to petition a judge for the release the child from their responsibility.
In the US at age 18, you are legally an adult, and do not require permission of a parent for most things.
I believe you could get a restraining order against an adult child if he/she is threatening you or your personal property.
The simplest way is to be an adult. Once you are an adult you can live where you wish. Until then, the parents get to make the decisions.
