Alabama Court of Civil Appeals

The Alabama Court of Civil Appeals is an intermediate court that reviews decisions from lower civil courts in Alabama, such as circuit courts. It handles cases involving non-criminal matters like contracts, property disputes, and personal injury claims. The court’s role is to ensure the correct application of law and proper legal procedures. It does not conduct new trials but reviews whether legal errors occurred in the original cases. Its decisions can be further appealed to the Alabama Supreme Court. The court helps provide fair and consistent interpretation of civil law across the state.
