Ala. Admin. Code r. 535-X-11 § 535-X-11-.15
Penalties
Operative Text
As used in this regulation, the Commission hereby adopts and incorporates by reference thereto the provisions of Sections 24-4A-6 and 24-5-33 of the Code of Ala. 1975.
Alabama Administrative Code r. 535-X-11 § 535-X-11-.15 establishes the penalty framework for violations of the state's housing regulations by formally incorporating two Alabama statutory provisions—Sections 24-4A-6 and 24-5-33 of the Code of Alabama 1975—rather than restating penalty terms directly. In effect, the penalties that apply under this regulation are those already defined in those two code sections. This cross-reference approach means the operative penalty amounts and enforcement mechanisms are found in the incorporated statutes, not in the regulation's own text.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers subject to Alabama Administrative Code r. 535-X-11 § 535-X-11-.15 should be aware that penalty exposure is governed by the terms set out in Ala. Code §§ 24-4A-6 and 24-5-33, which are incorporated by reference into this rule. Compliant operators generally familiarize themselves with both of those statutory sections to understand the full scope of consequences for noncompliance. Reviewing those provisions alongside this regulation gives a complete picture of the enforcement landscape the Alabama Real Estate Commission applies.
