    Default Emancipation In Utah

    You probaly heard this story a thousand and one times but, I am 17 and my girlfriend is 16 soon to trun 17 in the next 13 days and a month and half a mounth after her I well trun 18. My girlfriend is being really stressed out by her parents and her parents dont even let me go anywhere near her anymore. They have threatend not to let me see the child when its born also which has caused her want to move out even more. I am not a bad person either everyone considers me nice and caring. I also treat her parents with great respect even though the give me none.

    My gf has no job and ever since shes gotten pregnet shes been getting really tired shes still in school. So the question that im trying to get at is can we get married without the parents consint or is there even a chance that she can get emancipated.

    No, you cannot get married without her parent's consent.

    No, she cannot get emancipated under the circumstances you describe. Not even a remote chance.

    And yes, it is legal for the parents of a pregnant teen to prevent contact between said teen and her boyfriend.

    They probably think something crazy... like you two can't be trusted.

    I know of no case in any jurisdiction where a judge emancipated an unemployed pregnant teen.
