A professional association's failure to comply or require compliance with this section shall be a ground for the forfeiture of its right to render professional service as a professional association pursuant to this article. When a professional association's failure to comply with this section is brought to the attention of the Secretary of State, the Secretary of State shall certify that fact to the Attorney General for appropriate action to dissolve the professional association.

(d) The provisions of subsection (c) shall not be applicable if the transfer of shares even though otherwise contrary to subsections (a) or (b), has been consented to by all the shareholders of the close corporation, or if the close corporation has amended its certificate of formation in accordance with Section 10A-30-2.04. (e) The term "transfer," as used in this section, is not limited to a transfer for value. (f) The provisions of this section do not in any way impair any rights of a transferee regarding any right to rescind the transaction or to recover under any applicable warranty express or implied.

(b) In lieu of appointing a custodian for a close corporation under this section, the court may appoint a provisional director, whose powers and status shall be as provided in Section 10A-30-2.10 if the court determines that it would be in the best interest of the corporation. The appointment shall not preclude any subsequent order of the court appointing a custodian for such corporation.

Section 10A-30-2.10 Appointment of a provisional director in certain cases; applicable to corporations formed as close corporations or electing close corporation status prior to January, 1 1995. (a) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of the governing documents or agreement of the shareholders, the circuit court of the county in which the registered office of the corporation is located may appoint a provisional director for a close corporation if the directors are so divided respecting the management of the corporation's business and affairs that the votes required for action by the board of directors cannot be obtained with the consequence that the business and affairs of the corporation can no longer be conducted to the advantage of the shareholders generally. (b) An application for relief under this section must be filed (1) by at least one-half of the number of directors then in office, or (2) by the holders of at least one-third of all shares then entitled to elect directors, or, (3) if there be more than one class of shares then entitled to elect one or more directors, by the holders of two-thirds of the shares of any such class; but the certificate of formation of a close corporation may provide that a lesser proportion of the directors or of the shareholders or of a class of shareholders may apply for relief under this section. (c) A provisional director shall be an impartial person who is neither a shareholder nor a creditor of the corporation or of any subsidiary or affiliate of the corporation, and whose further qualifications, if any, may be determined by the circuit court of the county. A provisional director is not a receiver of the corporation and does not have the title and powers of a custodian or receiver. A provisional director shall have all the rights and powers of a duly elected director of the corporation, including the right to notice of and to vote at meetings of directors until such time as he or she shall be removed by order of the circuit court of the county or by the holders of a majority of all shares then entitled to vote to elect directors or by the holders of two-thirds of the shares of that class of voting shares which filed the application for appointment of a provisional director. His or her compensation shall be determined by agreement between him or her and the corporation subject to approval of the circuit court of the county, which may fix his or her compensation in the absence of agreement or in the event of disagreement between the provisional director and the corporation. (d) Even though the requirements of subsection (b) relating to the number of directors or shareholders who may petition for appointment of a provisional director are not satisfied, the circuit court of the county may nevertheless appoint a provisional director if permitted by subsection (b) of Section 10A-30-2.09.

Section 10A-30-2.12 Shareholders' option to dissolve corporation; applicable to corporations formed as close corporations or electing close corporation status prior to January 1, 1995. (a) The certificate of formation of any close corporation may include a provision granting to any shareholder, or to the holders of any specified number or percentage of shares of any class of shares, an option to have the corporation dissolved at will or upon the occurrence of any specified event or contingency. Whenever any such option to dissolve is exercised, the shareholders exercising the option shall give written notice thereof to all other shareholders. After the expiration of 30 days following the sending of the notice, the dissolution of the corporation shall proceed as if the required number of shareholders having voting power had consented in writing to dissolution of the corporation as provided by the Alabama Business Corporation Law. (b) If the certificate of formation as originally filed does not contain a provision authorized by subsection (a), the certificate of formation may be amended to include such provision if adopted by the affirmative vote of the holders of all the outstanding shares, whether or not entitled to vote, unless the certificate of formation specifically authorizes such an amendment by a vote which shall be not less than two-thirds of all the outstanding shares whether or not entitled to vote. (c) Each certificate for shares in any corporation whose certificate of formation authorizes dissolution as permitted by this section shall conspicuously note on the face thereof the existence of the provision. Unless noted conspicuously on the face of the certificate for shares the provision is ineffective.

(a) Upon the application of the county tax collectors, revenue commissioners, license commissioners, county treasurers, judges of probate, circuit court clerks, or registers of the circuit court, it shall be the duty of the county commission of the county to appoint a bank or savings association, that is a qualified public depository under Chapter 14A of Title 41, as a depository in which such officers may deposit money coming into their hands as such officers, which appointment shall be by proper resolutions spread upon the minutes of such commission. (b) Upon the application of the custodian of county school funds, it shall be the duty of the county board of education of the county to appoint a bank or savings association that is a qualified public depository under Chapter 14A of Title 41, as a depository in which such officers may deposit money coming into their hands as such officers, which appointment shall be by proper resolution spread upon the minutes of such county school board. (c) If and when a depository is or has been designated by the county board of education for the public school funds, or by the county commission for the funds of the tax collector, revenue commissioner, license commissioner, or county treasurer, the minimum amount of the bonds of such officers may be fixed at an amount not less than twice the amount of the average daily balance of funds on hand under the control of such office during that month in the preceding fiscal year when such average daily balance was greatest, but not to exceed a maximum of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000).

(e) In the event of this dissipation or loss of any of such funds because of such insolvency or failure of such depository, the county and state shall have a preferred claim against such qualified public depository for the amount of such dissipation or loss. (f) In the event of the naming of such depository for the county tax collector, revenue commissioner, or license commissioner of any county and the use of such depository by him, such county tax collector shall make reports, distributions, and remittances to the proper authorities of the funds so deposited on October 15 of each year and on the first and fifteenth of each month thereafter until he or she makes his or her final settlement for such year; provided, that if, on the fifteenth day of any month following final settlement and before October 15 following, the tax collector, revenue commissioner, or license commissioner has on hand collections in an amount equal to one half of his or her official bond, he or she shall make reports, distributions, and remittances to the proper authorities in like manner as now required by law, these reports, distributions, and remittances to be in addition to those now required of such officer by Section 40-5-36. (g) The provisions of this section are not exclusive but cumulative and remedial, and this section shall not be construed as abolishing any other method or manner now provided by law for the making of official bonds of county officers or handling funds of county officers coming into their hands as such officers. Nothing in this section shall relieve any public official from making official bonds as is now required by law, nor from liability thereon except as is provided by this section. (Acts 1933, Ex.

Section 11-2-7 Discharge of sureties on bonds. Any person or corporation who is surety upon the official bond of any county official or county employee may discharge himself or itself of the suretyship upon making sworn application in writing addressed to the official, county commission, board, or commission required to approve the bonds, setting forth the reason for requesting discharge. Upon the filing of the application, the official, board, or commission to whom the application is addressed shall forthwith cause personal written notice to be served upon the county official or county employee as principal fixing a day not less than 15 nor more than 30 days after the date of the filing of the application requiring the county official or county employee to provide a new bond. Upon the failure of the county official or county employee to provide the bond within the time specified in the notice, he or she vacates his or her office or employment, and the official, county commission, board, or commission giving the notice shall at once certify the vacation to the appointing power required by law to fill the vacancy. If a new bond is filed, it shall be in the amount and filed and approved as provided in this chapter. On the execution, approval, and filing of the new bond, the original surety is discharged from all liability for any breach of the bond occurring thereafter, but the discharge shall not affect the liability of any of the obligors for any actions or inactions occurring prior to the execution, approval, and filing of the new bond. In case of the discharge of any one or more obligors under this section, the discharge shall operate as a discharge of all other obligors on the bond. When the sureties on either bond have made any payments thereon on account of the principal obligor therein, they are entitled to the same remedies and recoveries against the sureties in the remaining bonds as provided in Section 11-2-29. Every such new or additional bond approved and filed as provided in this section is binding upon the obligors from the time of its approval and subjects them to the same liabilities, proceedings, and remedy as are provided in relation to the first official bond of the county official or county employee.

2023 Code of Alabama › Title 11 - Counties and Municipal Corporations. › Title 1 - Provisions Applicable to Counties Only. › Chapter 2A - Compensation of County Officials. › Section 11-2A-2 - Annual Compensation of Certain Local Officials.
Section 11-2A-2 Annual compensation of certain local officials. Effective October 1, 2000, the annual compensation which a county shall pay to a county commissioner, a judge of probate, a sheriff, a tax assessor, a tax collector, a revenue commissioner, a license commissioner, and an elected assistant tax assessor or collector shall be as set out below: (1) SHERIFF. The annual minimum compensation for each sheriff shall be fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) which shall be in lieu of any salary and expense allowance currently provided to a sheriff receiving total compensation less than the minimum. Beginning with the next term of office for each sheriff, except as provided in Section 11-2A-4, the salary herein provided shall be the minimum compensation payable to the sheriff in lieu of any salary, expense allowance, or other compensation provided by law. (2) COUNTY COMMISSIONERS AND JUDGES OF PROBATE. The annual minimum compensation for county commissioners and judges of probate in Categories 1 and 2 shall be as provided by local law. Except as otherwise provided in this chapter and subject to the provisions of Section 11-2A-4, the annual compensation for county commissioners and judges of probate in Category 3 shall be increased by 20 percent effective October 1, 2001, if the compensation, including expense allowance, of the office has not been increased by other general or local law during the period from October 1, 1996, to October 1, 2001; the annual minimum compensation for county commissioners and judges of probate in Category 4 shall be that amount prescribed by general law on September 30, 2000, plus a 20 percent increase; the annual minimum compensation for county commissioners and judges of probate in Category 5 shall be that amount prescribed by general law on September 30, 2000, plus a 17 percent increase; and the annual minimum compensation for county commissioners and judges of probate in Category 6 shall be that amount prescribed by general law on September 30, 2000, plus a 15 percent increase. (3) TAX ASSESSORS, TAX COLLECTORS, REVENUE COMMISSIONERS, LICENSE COMMISSIONERS, AND ELECTED ASSISTANT TAX COLLECTORS OR ASSESSORS. a. On and after June 1, 2000, each county commission is authorized to provide an expense allowance to the tax assessor, tax collector, revenue commissioner, license commissioner, elected assistant tax assessor, and elected assistant tax collector in amounts not to exceed ten thousand dollars ($10,000) per annum. The expense allowance may be phased in over a two-year period as determined by the county commission. At the beginning of the official's next term of office following the provision of the expense allowance authorized herein, the expense allowance shall be included in the base salary of the official and the expense allowance thereupon voided. Deductions from the expense allowances provided under this chapter shall be made for supernumerary programs, the State Employees' Retirement System, or other retirement programs as provided by law, the same as if the expense allowances were salary. Notwithstanding the above, in Category 3, an expense allowance for any official covered by this subdivision shall be provided in the amount of ten thousand dollars ($10,000) per annum effective October 1, 2001, if compensation for the office has not been increased by other general or local law during the period from October 1, 1996, to October 1, 2001. b. Any increase in base salary or expense allowance for a tax assessor, tax collector, revenue commissioner, license commissioner, elected assistant tax assessor, or elected assistant tax collector contained in any act passed in the 1999 2nd Special Session of the Legislature or any other act passed in the 2000 Regular Session shall be credited against any expense allowance provided under this subdivision, so that the total increase in compensation for a tax assessor, tax collector, revenue commissioner, license commissioner, elected assistant tax assessor, and elected assistant tax collector does not exceed ten thousand dollars ($10,000). (4) Any laws to the contrary notwithstanding, no person holding supernumerary office shall be entitled to any increases in compensation or expenses as a result of the implementation of any salary adjustments provided for in this chapter. (5) If implementation of the salaries in this chapter increases the salary of an incumbent office holder, the increase shall be paid as an expense allowance until the beginning of the next term of office whereupon the amount of the expense allowance shall be included in the base salary for the office holder and the expense allowance shall be voided. Deductions from the increase shall be made for supernumerary programs as provided by law as if the increase were salary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a county shall pay the salary increase during a term of office at the beginning of the next fiscal year if payment of the increase is sanctioned by an amendment to the Constitution of Alabama of 1901. (6) Notwithstanding this section or any other provision of this chapter, the increases in fees under Section 12-19-90 provided for by Act 2000-108 shall not apply to any county in Category 1 or 3 on June 1, 2000. (7) The local governing body of the county may, by resolution, elect for the county to be exempt from the provisions of this section and Section 11-2A-3 and the increases in fees in Section 12-19-90 as provided for by Act 2000-108; provided that the local governing body shall only be authorized to exempt the county from all of the sections referenced above, and provided further that the resolution is adopted after June 1, 2000, but prior to October 1, 2000. Any local governing body that exercises its authority under this subdivision may elect to have the county become subject to the provisions referenced above by the adoption of a resolution and the provisions shall become effective in the county on September 30, next following the adoption of the resolution. (8) Any county identified as a "Category 1" county under the provisions of Section 11-2A-1, is exempt from the provisions of this section.

However, if a local law increases the compensation of a local official, such local official shall not be entitled to any uniform increases pursuant to the procedure in subsection (a), until such time as the total compensation he or she would have received under subsection (a) is equal to or exceeds the increase provided by the local law.

(a) Any person who is a qualified elector of the county and has resided in the county for at least one year prior to the date upon which he or she would take office is eligible to seek office as county commissioner. In counties where the county commissioners represent a certain district, any person seeking office as county commissioner shall be a qualified elector of and reside within the district which he or she seeks to represent upon election or appointment for at least one year prior to the date that he or she would take office. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the one-year residency requirement provided above shall not apply to the first election following any redistricting of county commission districts in a county. Any person serving as county commissioner, at all times while in office, shall meet the qualified elector and residency requirements set out herein, and in the case of a district commissioner shall reside in the district as it existed at the time of his or her election. (b) Unless a local law authorizes a special election, any vacancy on the county commission shall be filled by appointment by the Governor. If the appointment occurs at least 30 days before the closing of party qualifying as provided in Section 17-13-5, the person appointed to the vacated office shall only serve until seven days after the next general election following the appointment as provided herein. The person so appointed to fill the vacancy shall meet the residency requirements in subsection (a), and shall hold office from the date of appointment until the eighth day following the next general election. If the original term in which the vacancy occurred would not have expired on the eighth day following the next general election after the appointment, the person elected at the election required by operation of this subsection shall serve for a period of time equal to the remainder of the term in which the vacancy was created. Thereafter, election for the county commission seat shall be as otherwise provided by law. (c) Unless otherwise provided by local law, by court order, or governed by Section 11-80-12, and as otherwise provided in subsection (d), there shall be in every county a county commission, composed of the judge of probate, who shall serve as chairman, and four commissioners, who shall be elected at the time prescribed by law and shall hold office for four years until their successors are elected and qualified. (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of law related to election canvassing, certification, or contest, the term of office for county commissioner shall commence at 12:00 a.m. on the second Wednesday following the general election at which he or she is elected and shall expire at 11:59 p.m. on the first Tuesday following the day of the general election at which the successor to that office is elected. (e) Each county commission shall meet on the Wednesday following the election and tabulation of provisional ballots pursuant to Section 17-10-2 of any one of its members whose term commences on that day pursuant to subsection (d), and at this meeting, shall establish the regular meeting days for the county commission as provided in Section 11-3-8. The meeting shall be in lieu of any meeting of the county commission required by law to be held within the same calendar week and shall be in all respects and for all purposes a regular meeting of the county commission. The county commission shall not meet following the election of any one of its members until the meeting provided by this subsection, unless there is a declared emergency. An emergency may be declared for the purposes of this subsection upon a unanimous vote of the entire membership of the county commission. (f) Except as specifically provided in subsections (b) and (c), this section applies in all counties and may not be altered or amended by local law. Any existing local law or portion thereof in conflict with this section is specifically repealed to the extent of the conflict effective with the next election following September 1, 2007. It is the intent of the foregoing that a portion of a local law in direct conflict with this section shall be repealed, and any remaining portions of the local law not in conflict shall remain in full force and effect.
