(750 ILCS 30/9)
(from Ch. 40, par. 2209)
Sec. 9. Hearing on petition.
(a) Mature minor. Before proceeding to a hearing on the petition for
emancipation of a mature minor the
court
shall advise all persons present of the nature of the proceedings,
and their rights and responsibilities if an order of emancipation should be
entered.
If, after the hearing, the court determines that the minor is a mature
minor who is of sound mind and has the capacity and maturity to manage the minor's
own affairs including the minor's finances, and that the best interests of the minor
and the minor's family will be promoted by declaring the minor an emancipated minor,
the court shall enter a finding that the minor is an emancipated minor within
the meaning of this Act, or that the mature minor is partially emancipated
with such limitations as the court by order deems appropriate. No order
of complete or partial emancipation may be entered under this Act if there is
any
objection by the minor. An order of complete or partial emancipation may be entered under this Act if there is an objection by the minor's parents or guardian only if the court finds, in a hearing, that emancipation would be in the minor's best interests.
(b) (Blank).
