Summary

The bill amends Alabama law so charities, churches, schools and other nonprofit groups that do not pay ad valorem taxes can bring quiet‑title actions without showing tax receipts. It also updates the code’s wording and sets the changes to take effect on October 1, 2026. This simplifies the process for tax‑exempt entities to settle land‑ownership disputes.
