25-5-27. Rescission of declaration of emancipation.
A minor declared emancipated under §25-5-26 or 25-5-19 or his conservator may petition the circuit court of the county in which he resides to rescind the declaration.
Before the petition is heard, such notice as the court deems reasonable shall be given to the minor's parents or guardian or proof made to the court that their addresses are unknown, or that for other reasons such notice cannot be given. However, no liability may accrue to any parent or guardian not given actual notice, as a result of rescission of the declaration of emancipation, until such parent or guardian is given actual notice.
The court shall sustain the petition and rescind the declaration of emancipation if it finds that the minor is indigent and has no means of support.
If the petition is sustained, the court shall forthwith issue a court order rescinding the declaration of emancipation granted under §25-5-26, which shall be filed by the clerk of court.
Rescission of the declaration of emancipation does not alter any contractual obligations or rights or any property rights or interests which arose during the period that the declaration was in effect.
