Adjudication in Texas

What is the name of your state?
Texas

What is the law regarding getting adjudicated in the state of Texas. I have a friend who lives with his single mom who is extremely alcoholic and does not treat him right. He is 15 and will be 16 in November. Would he be able to be adjudicated?

Thanks for any help that can be offered.

Um...

ad·ju·di·cate /əˈdʒudɪˌkeɪt/ Pronunciation[uh-joo-di-keyt] verb, -cat·ed, -cat·ing.
–verb (used with object)
1. to pronounce or decree by judicial sentence.
2. to settle or determine (an issue or dispute) judicially.
–verb (used without object)
3. to sit in judgment (usually fol. by upon).

Reading that definition, and reading your question, my only answer is... huh??

I can only guess that what you're asking about is emancipation. If that is the case, it's not happening. If there is an abuse problem and the child needs to be removed, you can contact CPS and let them take care of it.
