This law relates to court proceedings only and designates the age at which the person can be tried in an adult court it does not override the state's legal age which is 18.

No, the age of majority in Missouri is 18. Some people have been led to believe that the age is 17, however that is in reference to juvenile court proceedings. The statute pertains to 17 year olds who become involved in the justice system being designated as an "adult" for the purpose of determining the proper court venue. The other two exceptions to MO. age of majority law are, if the minor marries or joins the military at 17, they are then considered legally emancipated.
