Public notes

The form requires the requester to certify Alabama residency under penalty of perjury and warns broad requests may be time-intensive. Who's in Jail and warrant-search pages are discovery tools, not substitutes for certified agency records. A similarly named commercial Mobile County court site expressly disclaims government affiliation and is excluded.
