Orlando, FL asked in Contracts, Juvenile Law and Criminal Law for Florida

Q: I am 15 and I was dating an 18 year old. My mom made us break up until she said made up her mind on whether we can date.

His Aunt said the only way we can date is if my mom signs a paper from the court. My mom said no because the court will look at us like she's stupid and will try to take me away from her since it's illegal. Can they take me away from her if she signed it allowing me to date him?

1 Lawyer Answer

A: No way to tell without first reviewing the document. Normally one would not sign a court document for the court or from the court unless there is a court case pending. Your post does not state that a court action is pending, so your mom may be right as the court makes rulings and orders after a case is presented and typically a person does not sign a document for the court unless the court asks for the same.

Not sure if this helps but good luck,
