If my mom has full custody but im 17 in Missouri and the legal age to move out in Missouri is 17 Can i live with my dad?

Answer 1

Please post the State you live in and I can help you with this question. Each State has different laws. Marcy washington The state of residecy is actually irrelevant. The age of majority in most states is 18, in Alabama and Nebraska it is 19, in Mississippi and Pennsylvania it is 21. Having a child does not automatically confer emancipation rights, that has to be done through the prescribed court procedure. If the minor's parent(s) or guardian object to her leaving the family home, they can initiate legal action to prevent her from doing so, or have her returned to their custody if that becomes applicable. The reason this is possible is, in ALL states parents or guardians are legally and financially responsible for minor children until they reach the legal age of majority or a court rules otherwise.

Answer 2

no No, not legally. It is very unlikely that authorities would intervene without a court order or the minor was found to be living in an unsafe or unsuitable environment. However, the parents would have the option of petitioning the court for an order of requistion to have the minor returned to their custody.

Answer 3

depending where you live check your laws, you can consult with a family lawyer and your reasons can be presented in family court. consultion is usually free. good luck.

AnswerTechnically, if your mother has full custody and you're still a minor, you can't legally make the decision to move. However, if all parties agreed to the move, then it would be in the best interest of everyone involved. If all parties do not agree to the move, you can either try to work things out or contact the court to get a hearing in which you would state your reasons for wanting to move.

Answer 4

It is certainly possible. That being said, under the law an unmarried woman retains sole custody rights to a child unless a court rules otherwise. Custody, visitation, child support and other issues will not be addressed by the court unless parentage has been established. If the father has not signed the birth certificate or a declaration of parentage it will be necessary for him to establish his parental rights through a paternity test. The preferred method is DNA although a traditional blood test is acceptable in the majority of cases.

Answer 5

No. You have to go through the court system if the father has legal custody but you can also go through the court system and get emancipated which means noone has legal custody over you so that means that you can live wherever without anyones permission. It's totally rockin'!!!!

Answer 6

If the parents have joint custody then yes, it is possible. Obviously, this would be at the discretion of the home's owner (the parent). Whether or not a teen can choose to leave one house and live in another parent's house without the first parent's permission depends on the custody agreement on file for the family, and the laws where they live.

In some countries/states, a 17-year-old can petition the court for emancipation -- legal declaration of adulthood and release from the necessity for custody by other adults.

Once the child turns 18 (in the US anyway) he is considered an adult and can move out and get his own place. Similarly, the parents do not have an obligation to take care of him, and can legally kick him out.

Answer 7

Probably not since a 17 year old is still a minor but can drive. If they were 18 it would be a different story. In Michigan 17 is a legal age to move out of the parents home.

Answer 8

The legal age to move out in Missouri is not 17, it's 18, and no. I'm in KCMO. see my profile and the links below
