Can a minor get out of an employment contract?


Can a minor get out of an employment contract?

I was under the impression that a minor could not sign a legally binding contract without there parents signature, so if that is the case consider the contract null and void :)

Have a great day

yes if you are under 18 ...

no they are in for life.

A minor should not have been able to enter into the contract, so it's technically null to begin with. The minor would have to return any monies paid for labor not performed.

I don't believe minors can enter contracts in most states without parental consent, and the parent would have to sign the contract too. If they did, then it is binding and whatever penalties are applicable will apply.

A minor in the United States is not legally allowed to sign a contract. They must be at least 18 years of age to sign a contract.

Anybody under 18 cannot sign a legal contract.........#####3

a minor, or someone under 18 cannot make a legal contract. There has to be some adult signing for the minor and they would be responsible for any contracts made.

There shouldn't have been a contract at all. People under the age of 18 are not in full control of their lives and therefore can't be held responsible for their actions.

A minor cannot legally enter into a contract of any kind. So yes.
