of real estate for taxes and would provide for this process to apply regardless of when the
tax sale took place. This bill would also ratify, validate, and affirm any good faith actions

pursuant to any prior version of the law. A BILL TO BE ENTITLED AN ACT To amend Section 40-10-28,
Code of Alabama 1975, to provide for the calculation, distribution,...
