Q: Can my guardian give guardian ship to another person in another state for me to attend college underage at the age of 16
I am working on graduating high school early and plan to attend college afterward at the age of 16. The college I want to go to is in California and I live in Ohio with my guardian. How would it work for me to attend college out of state without my guardian being able to move?
A: You will want to confer with a California family law attorney as well. Have you identified with whom you would reside while attending college there? You will need to also hire an attorney in the county that granted custody to your present guardian. This is a novel question that will require any competent attorney to conduct research. This forum is no substitute for that.
