Terms Used In Alabama Code 6-9-22
- Affidavit: A written statement of facts confirmed by the oath of the party making it, before a notary or officer having authority to administer oaths.
- 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.
- Trial: A hearing that takes place when the defendant pleads "not guilty" and witnesses are required to come to court to give evidence.
Upon the entry of judgment, execution may be issued by leave of the court before the time prescribed in the Alabama Rules of Civil Procedure for the issuing of executions, the plaintiff, his agent, or attorney showing sufficient cause therefor by affidavit; but the defendant is not prevented thereby from moving for a new trial nor deprived of any right he would otherwise have had.
