SYNOPSIS: Under existing law, the district court has jurisdiction over cases where the amount
in controversy is $10,000 or less, and the small claims division of the district court has
jurisdiction over cases where the amount in controversy does not exceed $3,000. Under existing
law, a plaintiff filing a case in the district court is charged a filing fee. The amount of
the filing fee is less for cases filed in the small claims division of the district court.
This bill would increase the jurisdiction of the small claims division of the district court
to cover all cases where the amount in controversy is $6,000 or less. This bill would revise
the filing fee and filing fee distribution statutes to reflect the new jurisdiction of the
small claims division, but would keep the filing fees and distribution of filing fees at the
same amounts as before the revisions provided in this act. A BILL TO BE...

in Clay, Randolph, and Blount Counties, having a population of 1,000 or more may determine
by a local option election whether alcoholic beverages may be legally sold and distributed
within the corporate limits of the municipalities. This bill would decrease the population
threshold from 1,000 to 500 for municipalities to change from dry to wet. This bill would
remove the exception for municipalities in Clay, Randolph, and Blount Counties which would
allow them to determine by a local option election whether alcoholic beverages may be legally
sold and distributed within the corporate limits of the municipalities. A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT To amend Sections 28-2A-1 and 28-2A-3, Code of Alabama 1975, relating to municipal

McCampbell RFD Education Policy Rd 1 10-MAR-15 SYNOPSIS: Under existing law, the Department
of Postsecondary Education, and its chief executive officer, entitled Chancellor, is a parallel
organization to the State Department of Education that is directly responsible to the State
Board of Education for the direction and supervision of two-year institutions of higher education.
This bill would establish an independent Alabama Community College System in lieu of the Department
of Postsecondary Education and would provide for the assumption by the Chancellor of the system
and the Board of Trustees of the Alabama Community College System of all duties and responsibilities
for community and technical colleges in the state. A BILL TO BE ENTITLED AN ACT To establish

164479-2:n:02/25/2015:FC/th LRS2015-434R1 HB225 By Representative Lindsey RFD County and Municipal
Government Rd 1 10-MAR-15 SYNOPSIS: Under existing law, counties may contract with the United
States, with the State of Alabama, and with other counties, but there is no general authority
for the county commission to contract with municipalities. This bill would authorize counties
to contract with municipalities in the state. Under existing law, county commissioners are
prohibited from contracting with the county or hiring family members. This bill would clarify
existing law to provide that a county commissioner may not contract with the county personally
or through his or her business and may not participate in the hiring of a family member. Additionally,
the bill would define family member as that term is defined in the state ethics law. Under
existing law, two or more counties may enter into agreements to self-fund liability and workers'
compensation insurance, but are not authorized...

Rd 1 03-MAR-15 SYNOPSIS: Under existing law, when a used automotive part or vehicle is taken
as a credit on a new or rebuilt part or a vehicle, sales tax is due on the net difference
in price, or when the used automotive part or core is later returned, the purchaser is generally
refunded the value of the returned used part or core plus any sales tax originally paid. However,
by exception in the law, when a used automotive battery is taken as a credit on a new battery,
this provision does not apply and sales tax is due on the full purchase price of the new battery
without regard to any credit for the return of the old battery. This bill would delete the
above exception on the trade-in of a used automotive battery for a new battery. The sales
tax due would be based on the net price of a new automotive battery less any credit for return
of the old battery. A BILL TO BE ENTITLED AN ACT Relating...

law, the judges of probate in this state are provided a minimum salary that was provided by
Act 90-702 of the 1990 Regular Session, Section 12-13-20, Code of Alabama 1975. This salary
was adjusted by certain increases in the Omnibus Pay Act in Act 2000-108, Chapter 2A of Title
11, Code of Alabama 1975, based on certain population categories of counties established therein.
In addition, a judge of probate of a county may receive a cost-of-living adjustment under

of the salary of a state district court judge according to the...

Rd 1 07-MAY-15 SYNOPSIS: Under existing law, only corporations, limited liability partnerships,
and professional associations are required to file any annual reports to stay active. This
bill would require all filing entities and foreign filing entities to file an annual report
to assist the state in determining which filing entities and foreign filing entities are active
and which may need to be cancelled or revoked through an administrative dissolution process.
This bill would allow the Secretary of State, after proper notice, to administratively dissolve
entities which are no longer active and have not complied with filing an annual report. Existing
law also provides a schedule of fees for annual reports for corporations, limited liability
partnerships, and professional associations. This bill would make the fee schedule consistent
