Supreme Court of Alabama

Allie Construction, Inc. v. Debra Mosier, as personal representative of the Estate of Willard Mosier

March 24, 2023

Summary

The Supreme Court of Alabama held that obtaining writs of garnishment within the 20‑year statutory period constitutes commencement of an enforcement action under § 6‑2‑32, Ala. Code 1975, so the action is not time‑barred and the judgment lien was improperly extinguished. The Court reversed the circuit court and remanded for further proceedings.
