Sec. 3. A minor who has been partially emancipated under this chapter (or IC 34-4-44.2 before its repeal) may not avoid a contract, a liability release, or an indemnity agreement referred to in a court order issued under this chapter (or IC 34-4-44.2 before its repeal) by alleging that the minor was under a legal disability by reason of the minor’s age. No parent of a minor who has been partially emancipated under this chapter (or IC 34-4-44.2 before its repeal) may seek to have a contract, a liability release, or an indemnity agreement signed by the partially emancipated minor as allowed under this chapter set aside by reason of the minor’s age at the time the minor entered into the contract, regardless of whether the parent participates in the partial emancipation proceeding or fits the definition of a parent under IC 34-6-2-93.
