Michigan recognizes the emancipation of minors only in the following four instances: (1) When the minor reaches the age of 18 years. (2) When the minor is validly married (consent needed from parents or legal guardian). (3) When the minor enlists in the military and is placed on "active" duty (consent needed from parents or guardian). (4) Or granted limited emancipation rights by the court to obtain routine medical treatment or when in relation to a pregnancy to allow the minor female to be eligible for public assistance (Medicaid, WIC, etc.).

∙ 12y agoIt's a bit confusing in Michigan but this is from the Michigan state government website:
For most purposes, you become an adult when you turn 18, an age established by The Age of Majority Act. However, other ages can be important depending on what legal issues are involved. For example, under Michigan law a person is considered an adult for purposes of the criminal law at age 17. So if a 17 year old is accused of a crime, he/she will be tried as an adult in either district or circuit court rather than in family court. Similarly,Michigan's Constitution establishes the legal drinking age as 21. Also, if you are emancipated, then you are legally an adult.
So it depends on what it is regarding.

This all depends on the circumstances. If the 16 year old has given consent then it is not considered statutory rape according to Michigan Law. However, if the 16 year old became pregnant against her will, it would fall under rape, regardless of her age. The following was taken from the Criminal Sexual Conduct (CSC) Law for the State of Michigan. An individual who is 15 years of age or under is considered a minor under this law and is not considered legally able to consent to a sexual experience. If an individual 16 yrs. or older engages in a sexual experience with someone 15 yrs or younger, that is Statutory Rape regardless of whether the minor agreed to the experience or not. A parent or legal guardian of the minor can press charges against the adult even if the minor consented to the experience.
