Bill Summary

A bill for an act relating to courts; permitting certain emancipated minors to seek harassment restraining orders on their own behalf; amending Minnesota Statutes 2020, section 609.748, subdivision 2.

AI Summary

This bill amends Minnesota Statutes to allow emancipated minors, who are living independently and managing their own financial affairs, to seek harassment restraining orders on their own behalf, rather than requiring a parent, guardian, or conservator to do so on their behalf. The bill specifies that an emancipated minor must demonstrate that they are living separately from their parents and managing their own finances, and that their parents have relinquished control and authority over them. This change is intended to provide greater legal protections for emancipated minors who may be the victims of harassment.
