What's the legal age in Wisconsin for a child to be emancipated?
Pt [16] contributed the first answer. The last improvement was made by Macky Home Help Search ... Trust points for Macky recommend FAQ farmer edit answer
Answer
Not every state has emancipation laws, and Wisconsin is one that does not. There is no statue in Wisconsin under which a minor can petition the court for early emancipation. edit answer
Answer
Although there are no specific laws in the state of Wisconsin that relate to early emancipation of a minor, that does not mean a petition cannot be filed. In states that do not have emancipation statutes the cases are adjudicated on an individual basis, even minors cannot be denied their equal rights under the Constitution. You will need the assistance of state social services or DFS as an investigation of the circumstances will be required before any legal action can commence. The legal age of majority in Wisconsin is 18. add answer

Minimum legal drinking age (MLDA) laws prohibit the consumption of alcohol by persons under the age of 21 and, in all states, the sale of alcohol to persons under 21. Alcohol is readily available to underage people through licensed alcohol outlets because merchant compliance with minimum drinking age laws is generally lax:
  • underage buyers were able to buy alcohol in 97% of purchase attempts in Washington, DC, 82% of attempts in Westchester County, NY, 44% of attempts in Schenectady, NY (Preusser et al. 992), and 59% of attempts in northwestern New Jersey (O'Leary et a

      only 130 alcohol outlets have any action taken against them only 88 adults are arrested for furnishing alcohol to a minor (Wagenaar and Wolfson 1994)
    Minimum legal drinking age (MLDA) laws have proven effective in reducing alcohol-related injuries among youth despite minimal enforcement efforts:
    • fatal single vehicle nighttime crashes (used as a proxy measure of fatal alcohol-involved crashes) among youth under age 21 decreased 13.2% as a result of the rise in the MLDA (O'Malley and Wagenaar 1991)

    Click Here to Order Right to Privacy in the Workplace in the Information Age
    As traffic on the "information superhighway" continues to explode a number of substantive questions about the use and abuse of these information networks arises. One issue of primary concern is whether the current law provides adequate protection for the individual's right to privacy in the workplace from threats posed by computer technology, electronic eavesdropping, video and sound recording equipment, and databases filled with personal information. What are the ramifications for an employees' right to privacy in the workplace? Does an employer have the right to search an employee's computer files or review the employee's electronic mail ("E-mail")?
    The Right to Privacy
    The right to privacy plays a unique role in American law and society. Privacy, although not explicitly protected by the Constitution, is considered a core value by most Americans. It has also taken on multifarious meanings so that it no longer conveys one coherent concept. Privacy rights, guaranteeing an individual's right to a private life, find their authority in the Constitution, state constitutions, federal and state statutes, and tort law judicial decisions.
    When the framers wrote the Constitution and the Bill of Rights they specifically addressed that day's most pressing privacy fears: (1) that government would search one's home whenever it desired and (2) the quartering of troops in the home. The framers, however, were unable to address future changes in technology and the myriad of privacy concerns that have evolved as new technologies permeated their way into our society. Therefore one must ask whether the law protecting the right to privacy has evolved with the new technologies to ensure the vitality of the Fourth Amendment.

    EXTENDED BREASTFEEDING AND THE LAW
    ELIZABETH N. BALDWIN
    from Breastfeeding Abstracts, February 2001, Volume 20, Number 3, pp. 19-20.
    Misinformation about breastfeeding affects everyone in our society, including lawyers, judges, psychologists, and social workers. While there is no harm in breastfeeding past infancy and allowing a child to wean naturally, many professionals in social service agencies and family law courts are quite shocked to learn just how long a child may breastfeed. Lacking accurate information, these officials may overreact and conclude that breastfeeding a child of two, three, or four is somehow improper. As more mothers nurse longer, healthcare and lactation professionals need to be aware of legal issues surrounding extended breastfeeding, so that they can educate their counterparts in the legal and social service systems.
    Breastfeeding and the Courts
    Information about Weaning
    Mothers who have breastfed past infancy rarely expected to nurse for so long, but they continue because it is so important to their child. At one time children all over the world were breastfed until they weaned naturally. It is only in our modern society that extended breastfeeding has fallen so far out of fashion that it is viewed as an abnormal act.

    I. Software as Property: The Theoretical Paradox
    S OFTWARE : no other word so thoroughly connotes the practical and social effects of the digital revolution. Originally, the term was purely technical, and denoted the parts of a computer system that, unlike "hardware," which was unchangeably manufactured in system electronics, could be altered freely. The first software amounted to the plug configuration of cables or switches on the outside panels of an electronic device, but as soon as linguistic means of altering computer behavior had been developed, "software" mostly denoted the expressions in more or less human-readable language that both described and controlled machine behavior [ That was then and this is now. Technology based on the manipulation of digitally-encoded information is now socially dominant in most aspects of human culture in the "developed" societies [

    This essay is an attempt to present and critically discuss the phenomenon of music piracy on the World Wide Web. The main arguments in this paper will try to approach the phenomenon from two directions. The first one attempts to present the MP3 phenomenon as a part of the challenges that the music industry had to face. It is argued that in the past several technological developments have already challenged the music industry's status quo in similar ways. The second direction, is attempting to situate the MP3 phenomenon in its general technological, economical and political framework. In other words, the MP3 phenomenon should be examined as a part of the cultural transformation that the Internet 'explosion' produces on a global scale.
