Supreme Court of Alabama
Cameron Givianpour v. Thomas J. Curtain, Sr.
October 24, 20142014 Ala. LEXIS 173
Summary
The court held that unpaid rent a foreclosure purchaser could not collect from the tenant was not a lawful charge that could be imposed on a redemptioner. Because the parties had a bona fide disagreement over the legality of that charge, the disagreement excused the redemptioner from tendering any amount into court when filing the redemption complaint, and partial payment of undisputed charges was not required. The court reversed the dismissal and remanded for further proceedings.
