What is the name of your state? Michigan

My daughter is 17 and on probation for a minor with possesion of alcohol offense. Since this began when she was 16, its handled through juvenile court. They want to put her in foster care because she has not been able to improve her grades at school or done enough community service. She also got married recently. Does marriage change the status of her case in any way?

 

[stealth2]

Probably only in that she's making one bad choice after another.

 

[sandy55]

which court?

The state is Michigan

What I'm asking is whether her husband is now her gardian? Is she considered emancipated? Does her case stay in juvenile court or would it be moved to district court with her being under adult probation?

You need to give more answers before we can give any advice.

Who gave permission for your daughter to marry?

Is there child support involved, was that terminated upon her marriage?

Did she file emancipation?

Is her PO aware she married?

Is she in school?

Being married doesn't erase the mip.

How old is her husband and how long have they been having sex?

HOw do you see allowing her to get married as helping with her addiction problems?

Is she in AA or treatment?

married with mip

Michigan

I am her parent and I gave her permission to marry although I was hoping for an extended engagement. her husband is 23, and yes they have been having sex for a few months. She has attend some substance abuse classes which have been beneficial. She is still in high school. She may be moving to another county with the grooms parents. Would this transfer her case? Child support is not an issue...her father is incarcerated.

married juvenile.

Michigan

No, she has not filed for emancipation, she thinks that marriage emancipates her automatically. her po does know that they obtained a license. I gave her permission, although I thought there would be a lengthy engagement. She is still in school, and she has taken some substance abuse classes which have been beneficial. She may be moving in with grooms parents in another county, would her case be transferred? Child support is not an issue...her father is incarcerated.

The PO needs to know she is married. Do you really think it was a good idea for them to get married? This 23 yo isn't able to support her if they are planning to move in with his parents. She needs a structured drug and alcohol abuse program and for her to attend AA meetings.
