The Missouri Application of Unmarried Minor Child(men) for Refusal of Letters (Sec. 473.090 RSM) is a form used to give legal protection to unmarried minor children from the potential harm of obtaining Letters of Consent from their parents or guardians. The form allows a minor to refuse the issuance of Letters of Consent to a parent or guardian if they are not in the best interests of the minor. The form is used in cases where a parent or guardian is seeking to gain custody of the child and the minor believes that the parent or guardian is not fit to take custody of them. There are two types of Missouri Application of Unmarried Minor Child(men) for Refusal of Letters (Sec. 473.090 RSM). The first type is the Application for Refusal of Letters of Consent and the second type is the Request for Pre-Consent Hearing. The Application for Refusal of Letters of Consent is used when a minor wishes to refuse the issuance of Letters of Consent to a parent or guardian. This form must be filed with the Juvenile Division of the local court. The Request for Pre-Consent Hearing is used when a minor wishes to contest the issuance of Letters of Consent to a parent or guardian. This form must be filed with the Family Division of the local court.
