Ala. Code § 6-9-256

Judgment Conclusive and Enforceable.

Known as the Alabama Uniform Foreign-Country Money Judgments Recognition Act

The act spans §§ 6-9-250 to 6-9-261 (12 sections).

(Act 2012-470, p. 1296, §7.)

If the court in a proceeding under Section 6-9-255 finds that the foreign-country judgment is entitled to recognition under this article, then, to the extent that the foreign-country judgment grants or denies recovery of a sum of money, the foreign-country judgment is:

(1) conclusive between the parties to the same extent as the judgment of a sister state entitled to full faith and credit in this state would be conclusive; and

(2) enforceable in the same manner and to the same extent as a judgment rendered in this state.
