of committee or subcommittee gatherings at which discussions were conducted on matters that
would later come before the full governmental body. In 2013, the Alabama Supreme Court ruled,
in a 5-3 decision, that citizens do not have standing to bring suits under the Open Meetings

future violations. Also in 2013, the Alabama Supreme Court stated that there is no requirement
that the Alabama Legislature hold open meetings. This bill would define and prohibit serial
