At what age is a child considered an adult
I am currently trying to find out where it states that a child is considered an adult at the age of 18. It is not in the Constitution.
Please advise.
Thank you

It is a statute, enacted by the State legislature, and different in each State.

Mckinneys Consolidated laws include the NY laws.
For criminal law, the Penal Code is the correct source of law.
