Legislator summary

AI generated

The Administrative Court dismissed the minor's independent application for social assistance, ruling that parents remain liable for the child's support until age 18. The Social Board rejected the initial claim on this statutory basis, and the minor sought to override this decision independently. The court upheld the original ruling, confirming that parental responsibility for child support persists throughout the minor's minority period.

Sosiaalilautakunta oli hylännyt 17-vuotiaan toimeentulotukea

koskevan hakemuksen sillä perusteella, että vanhemmat

vastaavat lapsensa elatuksesta siihen saakka, kunnes lapsi

täyttää 18 vuotta. Alaikäinen haki itsenäisesti muutosta

sosiaalilautakunnan päätökseen. Lääninoikeus tutki alaikäisen

valituksen. Vanhempia kuultiin asiassa sen sevittämiseksi,

oliko alaikäinen voinut saada elatuksen vanhemmiltaan.
