Section 6-6-282 Actions by mortgagee, etc., against mortgagors, etc. If the action is by a
mortgagee or his assignee against the mortgagor, or anyone holding under him, the defendant
may plead payment of the mortgage debt or the performance of the condition of the mortgage,
or any matter which might be pleaded to a direct civil action for the recovery of the mortgage
debt, except the statute of limitations. The jury must pass upon such answers and must ascertain
the amount of the mortgage debt if any is found to exist. If the verdict is for the defendant,
judgment must be entered for him; but if the verdict ascertains an amount due on the mortgage
debt, judgment must be entered for the plaintiff for the possession of the land and the costs,
and the amount of the mortgage debt, as ascertained by the jury, must be stated in the judgment.
If, within 30 days after the entry of the judgment, the defendant shall pay to the plaintiff,
or to the clerk for his use, such debt, interest, and...

Section 6-6-259 Actions by mortgagees or vendor in conditional sale contract, etc., against
mortgagors or vendees, etc. (a) If the action is by a mortgagee or his assignee against a
mortgagor, or one holding under him, or by a vendor who has made a conditional sale reserving
the title until the entire purchase money shall be paid, or his assignee, against his vendee
or one holding under him, the defendant may, upon suggestion, require that the jury ascertain
the amount of the mortgage debt or the unpaid balance of the purchase price of the article
sold; and if the debt due is ascertained to be less than the value of the property sued for
as assessed by the jury, judgment must be entered for the property sued for or if that is
not to be had, then for the amount of the debt as ascertained by the jury. The court must
also make an order that, if the debt so ascertained, interest and costs, shall be paid within
30 days, no execution or other process shall issue on the judgment; and on...

Section 40-10-77 Defense of action fails on grounds other than that taxes were not due. THIS
SECTION WAS AMENDED BY ACT 2018-494 IN THE 2018 REGULAR SESSION, EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2020.
TO SEE THE AMENDED VERSION, SEE THE VERSION LABELED PENDING. If, in an action brought against
such purchaser or other person claiming under the purchaser to recover possession of lands
sold for taxes, the defendant claims and defends under the tax title and the defense fails
on the ground that such sale was invalid for any reason other than that the taxes were not
due, and the plaintiff recovers, the court shall forthwith, on the motion of the defendant,
ascertain the amount of taxes for which the lands were liable at the time of the sale and
for the payment of which they were sold, with interest thereon from the day of sale, and the
amount of such taxes on the lands, if any, as the defendant or the person under whom he or
she claims has, since such sale, lawfully paid or assumed, in case of the state,...

Section 35-11-112 Joinder of persons having liens on same property. (a) Persons having liens
under the provisions of this division, on the same property, may join in the same action for
the enforcement of their respective liens; and when there is such joinder, the court or jury
trying the action must ascertain the amount due to each of the plaintiffs secured by the lien,
and judgment must be rendered accordingly; but the failure of one or more of the plaintiffs
to establish his or their liens shall not defeat a recovery by the others. The proceeds of
the sale of the property levied on, if not sufficient to satisfy the demands of all the plaintiffs,
shall be distributed, after payment of the costs, pro rata among them. (b) When persons having
such liens on the same property refuse, after notice in writing, to join in such action, the
persons giving the notice may proceed without them on making affidavit of the fact of such
notice and refusal; and notice of the levy of the attachment...

Section 6-6-286 Proceedings upon defendant's suggestion of adverse possession. (a) When an
action is commenced to recover land or the possession thereof, the defendant may, at any time
before the trial, suggest upon the record that he, and those whose possession he has, have,
for three years next before the commencement of the action, had adverse possession thereof,
which must be construed to mean the same character of possession as will put in operation
the statute of limitations. In such case, if the jury finds for the plaintiff, it must also
ascertain by its verdict whether such suggestion is true or false. If the jury finds it to
be false, it must return a verdict for the damages as in ordinary cases. If the jury finds
it to be true, it must assess the value, at the time of trial, of the permanent improvements
made by the defendant, or those whose estate he has, and also ascertain by its verdict the
value of the lands and of the use and occupation thereof, not including the...

Section 6-6-294 Retention of possession for one year by defendant if crop planted or growing
upon filing bond; force and effect of bond. (a) If the defendant has a crop planted or growing
on the premises and the court or jury finds for the plaintiff, they must also ascertain the
rental value of the premises during the current year, and no writ of possession can be issued
until the expiration of the year if the defendant executes a bond in double the amount of
such rent payable to the plaintiff, with surety approved by the clerk, conditioned to pay
the rent so assessed at the expiration of the year. (b) The bond must be filed in the office
of the clerk and, if the rent is not paid at the expiration of the year, has the force and
effect of a judgment; and thereon, execution for the amount of the rent must issue against
all the obligors or such of them as may be living. (Code 1852, §§2199, 2200; Code 1867,
§§2600, 2601; Code 1876, §§2949, 2950; Code 1886, §§2712, 2713; Code 1896,...

Section 6-6-456 Judgment and proceedings if possession of effects subject to levy and sale
admitted. If the garnishee admits the possession of effects of the defendant, the subject
of levy and sale under legal process, judgment of condemnation must be entered that such effects
be delivered upon demand after the entry of judgment in favor of the plaintiff in the original
action, or so much thereof as may be necessary to satisfy the judgment, and the sheriff must
make sale thereof. If the garnishee fails to deliver such effects to the sheriff on demand,
he must make return thereof to the clerk, who must thereupon issue an execution against the
garnishee in favor of the plaintiff for the amount of the judgment and costs. If, however,
such failure is without fault or negligence on the part of the garnishee, he may tender to
the plaintiff, his agent, or attorney the value of such effects; and, if such tender is refused,
he may obtain relief by supersedeas. (Code 1852, §§2542-2544; Code...

Section 6-6-430 Filing of bond; discharge of money or property from garnishment; proceedings
as if bond not executed; judgment; discharge of garnishee. (a) When garnishment has been issued
in aid of a pending action or upon a judgment, the defendant may make and file with the judge
or clerk issuing the garnishment bond in such sum as the judge or clerk may prescribe, not
exceeding twice the amount of the plaintiff's demand, payable to the plaintiff, with sufficient
surety, to be approved by such judge or clerk, conditioned to pay the amount for which the
garnishee may be found indebted or liable to the defendant and the cost of the garnishment.
Thereupon, the money or property in the hands of the garnishee is discharged from the garnishment
and the garnishee relieved of all liability therefor to the plaintiff; but the garnishee must
answer, and, except as is otherwise provided in this article, the case must proceed and be
determined as if such bond had not been executed. (b) If the...
