Yes, emancipation is still legal in California. It allows minors aged 14 and older to gain legal independence from their parents or guardians under certain conditions, such as marriage, military service, or by proving financial self-sufficiency and the ability to live independently. The process requires filing a petition with the court, and the minor must demonstrate that emancipation is in their best interest.
