Section 12-22-112 Liability of defendant failing to appear; warrant of arrest. (a) If the defendant fails to appear at the circuit court as required by the appeal bond, he shall be liable to the same penalties, forfeitures and proceedings as on a forfeited bail bond taken in the court, and a new warrant of arrest may issue from that court without any other authority therefor. (b) Such warrant of arrest must be directed to any sheriff of the State of Alabama; and, when the defendant is arrested, he must be dealt within all respects as if the arrest had been made on capias from the circuit court.

Section 28-4-281 Correction of defects or irregularities in notice, etc., in forfeiture and condemnation proceedings. Whenever in any proceedings for forfeiture and condemnation of liquors and beverages and vessels and receptacles it shall appear to the judge or court that there has been any irregularity in the service of any process or notice or any omission to post or serve notices required or any defect in the affidavit or notice or in the service or return of either, the judge or court may permit the same to be amended and may direct such further service of process or of notice as will, in the judgment of the judge or court, be most effectual in securing notice of the proceeding to those who may be entitled thereto and so that the proceeding may not fail for any irregularity or technicality.

Section 15-13-130 Cash bail - Undertaking of bail: Basis of and when forfeited. The basis of all undertakings of bail, whether upon a warrant, writ of arrest, suspension of judgment, writ of error, or in any other case, is to ensure the appearance of the defendant in court, and the undertaking is forfeited by the failure of the defendant to appear. If, by reason of the neglect of the defendant to appear, money is deposited as cash bail and is forfeited and the forfeiture is not discharged or remitted, the clerk with whom it is deposited shall, at the end of 30 days, unless the court has before that time discharged the forfeiture, pay over the money deposited to the officer, official, or employee authorized by law to receive fines levied by the court. The court shall then, without any notice to defendant, render judgment absolute for the entire sum deposited and the money shall then become public money of the State General Fund or in bail forfeiture cases pending in the municipal courts...

Section 15-13-80 Failure of defendant to appear; forfeiture of money deposited in lieu of bail. (a) The essence of all undertakings of bail, whether upon a warrant, writ of arrest, suspension of judgment, appeal or in any other case, is the appearance of the defendant at court; and the undertaking is forfeited by the failure of the defendant to appear, although the offense, judgment or other matter is incorrectly described in such undertaking, the particular case or matter to which the undertaking is applicable being made to appear to the court. (b) If, by reason of the neglect of the defendant to appear, money deposited instead of bail is forfeited and the forfeiture is not discharged or remitted, the clerk with whom it is deposited must, at the end of 30 days, unless the court has before that time discharged the forfeiture, pay over the money deposited to such officer, official or employee authorized by law to receive fines levied by such court. Thereupon the court shall, without any...

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.
