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 12-22-25 Security for costs of appeal. In all other cases in which an appeal is taken
under the provisions of this division, the appellant, or someone for him, must give security
for the costs of such appeal, to be approved by the probate judge or the clerk of the circuit
court, as the case may be, and the names of such sureties must be certified with the record
to the appellate court, but the filing of security for costs is not a jurisdictional prerequisite.
If the appellant fails to prosecute his appeal or the judgment is not reversed or is entered
against him for a less amount than the judgment of the court from which the appeal is taken,
execution may issue against him and such sureties for the costs of the appeal. (Code 1852,
§1898; Code 1867, §2257; Code 1876, §3967; Code 1886, §3647; Code 1896, §464; Code 1907,

Section 15-21-32 Proceedings against defaulting witnesses. If any witness duly subpoenaed under
the provisions of this chapter fails to attend as required, the judge before whom the writ
of habeas corpus is returnable must endorse such failure on the back of the subpoena and deliver
it to the clerk of the circuit court of the county in which the examination is had; and the
same proceedings must be had thereon as against defaulting witnesses in that court, the endorsement
being presumptive evidence of such default. (Code 1852, §743; Code 1867, §4294; Code 1876,
