Operative Text
Repealed by Act 2006-316, p. 668, §3, effective January 1, 2007.
Section 35-9-84 of the Alabama Code, which previously addressed the arrest of proceedings in landlord-tenant matters, was formally repealed by Act 2006-316 effective January 1, 2007. As of that date, the provision no longer carries any legal force or effect. Any rules or procedures that were once governed by this section are no longer operative under Alabama law.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers operating in Alabama should be aware that § 35-9-84 was repealed by Act 2006-316 and has not been in effect since January 1, 2007. Compliant operators generally look to the current, active provisions of the Alabama Uniform Residential Landlord and Tenant Act (Ala. Code §§ 35-9A-101 et seq.) for governing procedures. Relying on this repealed section as a basis for any action or defense would not reflect current Alabama law.
