Wat kind of form would i have to get in order for my parents to indemnify his dad? And is there anything that my parents could sign to not necessarily remove him from liability, but say they wont sue him or hold him accountable for anything?

Why do people think that forms magically appear for every possible situation? If you want an indemnification agreement, you'll either have to Google for agreements similar to what you want and modify them to the circumstances, or hire a legal professional to draft one for you. If you take the former approach, you run the risk that you will make an error which causes the agreement to have no effect, or a different effect than you intend.

What i really need is just some kind of form that basically says that my parents wont sue my friends dad if something happens to me, unless it is of his own negligence. Thats all he needs.

Good luck with that. Anyone would be a fool to sign such a form. Even if they did I don't know it would hold up in court

Why wouldnt it hold up in court? A standard release of liability and covenant not to sue form should hold up in court.

I said not sure. Before you construct your own legal forms consult an Attorney. Now that doesnt negate my other point why would anyone sign such a document?

Because his dad will only let me move in if he doesnt have to be responsible if i do something stupid. and my parents will either have to sign it or risk me going through with the whole emancipation process which neither of us want. So it makes life alot easier. Its the same thing as a field trip form. Those things say that even if the bus driver is on crack and the kids all die, you cant sue them. Now why would you ever sign one of those?

Its not that simple and as discussed your emancipation pursuit is an uphill battle.

Do you think your friend's father gave you this task because he knows 1. there is no such form, or 2. he knows it wouldn't stand if there is a law suit?;) -
06-03-2007, 06:11 AMcbent2005Re: Moving OutI have a question- say you go out and do something stupid and someone else gets hurt (or even worse). You are under the supervision of this friends dad. What's to stop that other person (or their family) from suing your friends dad for negligence? They have no agreements with the friends dad. And if they happen to go after your parents for negligence, are your parents going to accept responsibility for the damages you cause or will they say "he wasn't in our care, he was in the care of...". If you went out and did something stupid on a field trip, the school would most likely be liable (at least I would think they would be responsible) because they were in charge of you. There are so many potential situations that no one can anticpate.Quote:

I don't know what your current living situation is but is it so bad that you need to move out before you turn 18? If you don't know this already, life is not easy. You may have to take the hard route to get what you want (I am not judging you - I have a 19yr old who thinks they know everything).
