Section 6-5-500 Intent of Legislature; legislative findings. It is the intent of the Legislature
that a comprehensive system consisting of the time for commencement of actions, for discoverability
of actions based upon insidious disease and the repose of actions shall be instituted in this
state. The Legislature finds that in order to assure the rights of all persons, and to provide
for the fair, orderly, and efficient administration of product liability actions in the courts
of this state, a complete and unified approach to the time in which product liability actions
may be brought and maintained is required. The Legislature finds that product liability actions
and litigation have increased substantially, and the cost of such litigation has risen in
recent years. The Legislature further finds that these increases are having an impact upon
consumer prices, and upon the availability, cost, and use of product liability insurance,
thus, affecting the availability of compensation for...

Section 6-5-751 Legislative findings and objectives. (a) The Legislature finds that the recruitment,
establishment, development, and growth of the commercial aviation aircraft manufacturing industry
in the State of Alabama is important to the economic health of the state and its agencies
and institutions and to the general health, welfare, and prosperity of its citizens. The Legislature
finds that it is reasonable and important to the national and international companies and
businesses involved in the commercial aviation aircraft manufacturing industry locating or
considering locating in the State of Alabama to expect that civil liability actions against
them, if any, will be governed by tort principles generally accepted in other jurisdictions
outside this state that are home to such companies and businesses, but which are consistent
