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 the Minnesota Statutes to allow certain emancipated minors to seek harassment restraining orders on their own behalf. Specifically, the bill states that a minor who can demonstrate they are emancipated (living separately from their parents, managing their own finances, and with parental relinquishment of control) may seek a restraining order if the court finds it is in the minor's best interest. This provides an avenue for emancipated minors to directly seek protection from harassment, rather than requiring a parent, guardian, or conservator to do so on their behalf.
