How do you become legally emancipated in Kentucky?

To become legally emancipated in Kentucky, a minor must file a petition with the circuit court in the county where they reside. The petition must include:

* The minor's name, age, and address

* The names and addresses of the minor's parents or guardians

* A statement of the reasons why the minor is seeking emancipation

* A description of the minor's current living situation

* A plan for the minor's financial support and education

The court will consider a number of factors in deciding whether to grant the petition, including:

* The minor's age, maturity, and ability to make responsible decisions

* The reasons why the minor is seeking emancipation

* The minor's current living situation

* The minor's plan for financial support and education

* The wishes of the minor's parents or guardians

If the court grants the petition, the minor will be considered legally emancipated and will have the same rights and responsibilities as an adult.

In addition to filing a petition with the court, a minor may also want to consult with an attorney to discuss their options and ensure that they understand the legal process.
