Can a 17-year-old girl be automatically emancipated when she graduates early in Texas?
No. There is no "automatic emancipation" it must be done through the established court procedures. Texas does have laws which allow a minor to file a petition of emancipation. The legal age of majority for the state is 18. Sorry that should have read "does" rather than "does not" however there are counties in the state that require the minor to file said petition with the Texas Supreme Court rather than a district court. Two of those counties are McLennan and Hood, there are probably others. Texas does have a procedure for petitioning for emancipation (called 'removal of disabilities of minority'). Check Texas Family Code, chapter 31 for information.

If minor is pregnant can she get emancipated without parental cansent?
NO! You will be emancipated in any of the ways: Marriage, court ordered, turn 18 or join the armed services. Mainly teenage parents find this to be true, but it isnt. You are still responsible for your child, but until you are emancipated you are still under control of your parents. The reason being in Texas you can not enter legal contracts until the age of 18... examples: leases, owning cars/ house, opening lines of credit.
