Terms Used In Alabama Code 11-2-29
- Defendant: In a civil suit, the person complained against; in a criminal case, the person accused of the crime.
- Plaintiff: The person who files the complaint in a civil lawsuit.
In any case when an additional bond has been required, the sureties in either bond, who may have been compelled to make any payment thereon for the principal obligor, have the same remedies against the sureties in the remaining bonds as cosureties have against each other and may recover against such sureties such an amount as shall be in the same proportion to the sum paid by the plaintiff as the aggregate penalty of the two bonds bears to the penalty of the bond of the defendant, apportioning the same among the solvent sureties.
