Summary

The amendment would allow the Blount County Judge of Probate, if licensed to practice law in Alabama, to exercise equity jurisdiction alongside the circuit court for cases originally filed in the probate court. Those cases would be treated exactly as circuit court cases, using the same procedural rules. Voters must approve the amendment in a future election for it to take effect.
