(a) Notwithstanding any other provisions of law or of the Alabama Rules of Civil Procedure,
in cases of forcible entry or unlawful detainer, an appeal to circuit court or to appellate
court does not prevent the issue of a writ of restitution or possession unless the defendant

since the date of the filing of the action and continues to pay all rent that becomes due
and payable under the terms of the lease as they become due, during the pendency of the appeal,

Section 12-16-13 Charges moved for by parties; appeals; general charges. Charges moved for
by either party must be in writing and must be given or refused in the terms in which they
are written, and it is the duty of the judge to write "given" or "refused,"
as the case may be, on the document and sign his name thereto, which thereby becomes a part
of the record. Charges which are marked "given" by the trial judge must be taken
by the jury with them on retirement, and those "refused" must be retained by the
clerk. The court shall, after the conclusion of his charge to the jury, read such written
charges as he has given for the parties in a clear and audible voice, saying to the jury,
"these are instructions given you by the court at the request of the plaintiff or defendant,
as the case may be, and are correct statements of the law to be taken by you in connection
with what has already been said to you." The refusal of a charge, though a correct statement
of the law, shall not be cause...

Section 15-15-43 Abatement of prosecution of misdemeanor in circuit court when case commenced
and pending in district or municipal court. (a) The original jurisdiction of the circuit courts
over felonies and misdemeanors is, in all things, unchanged; except, that when a prosecution

or authority of the defendant and must be sworn to. Each and every averment of the plea may
be traversed and denied; and if, on the trial of the issue, it appears that such prosecution
was commenced by the agency, request, participation, connivance or authority of the defendant,
