    She signed for you get married, but DID you get married? Legally married?

    Do you have a marriage certificate?

    Now, there are some things that this emancipation might not do. What kind of things is mom asking you to do that you are not wanting to do? Clean your room? Take out the trash? Make payments on a car? What?

    Did the judge indicate why he thinks you are not emancipated?

    What, exactly, did your mom go before a judge for? To get a court order to get you to come home and watch the dogs?

    A little more info might paint a better picture of what is happening here.

    It appears that KY has no statute governing emancipation, and from what I can read there is a mishmosh of laws that cover marriage under 18 but no statutes that apparently give a married minor full emancipation ... though logic would seem to indicate this should be the case. (Admittedly, I may have missed something in my review, so it may be there ... somewhere ...)

    You and your husband may want to consult legal counsel.

    I had the same results.

    did the court that said you are not emancipated take any action, enter any order? If not, while a nuisance, it would not appear to mean much of anything.

    who did you ask in this other courthouse?

    (Did I post the wrong website? It seemed at least fairly clear from the link that by the parents actions - in signing for the marriage - they have emancipated the minor child)

    The link was long on discussion, but short on statutes or case law. That may be Legal Aid's interpretation, but unless it is backed up by law, their opinion is not worth the ether it is printed on.
