Question: Is there any way for me to be emancipated from my mother's side of the family. In other words, I want to cut off my ties to my mother's family. I don't want to emancipate myself from my family, just my extended family. Is that possible?

Answer: No. Emancipation is the process of legally separating yourself from your parents before you are 18. The Arizona Legislature passed the laws allowing emancipation on August 12, 2005. The laws can be found at A.R.S. §§ 12-2451 through 12-2456. You can also read a summary of the law and the process on this site under Laws - Emancipation.
