Seizure and condemnation of adulterated, misbranded or substandard article.
Any article, substance, material or product which is subject to the provisions of this article which is adulterated, misbranded or under the standard, grade, weight or measure claimed, within the meaning of any provision of law or rules and regulations under authority of law, and which is manufactured for sale, held in possession with intent to sell, offered or exposed for sale or sold or delivered within this state shall be liable to be proceeded against in the circuit court of the county where the same is found and seized for confiscation by writ of attachment for condemnation. Such writ shall issue upon the sworn complaint of the commissioner or his duly authorized agent, taken by an officer authorized to administer an oath, to the effect that such article or product is adulterated or misbranded or is under the standard, grade, weight or measure claimed, as the case may be, within the meaning of any provision of law or rules and regulations under authority of law. The said sworn complaint by said commissioner or his duly authorized agent may be amended at any stage of the proceedings. Said writ shall be returnable in five days to the court issuing the writ. Such court shall hear and decide whether the allegations of the complaint are true and whether said article or product shall be condemned and confiscated. Such hearing shall not be had until five days' notice of the date therefor shall have been served on the owner, his agent or any other party having an interest in the same, except as otherwise provided in this section. Service of a copy of the writ of attachment showing the returns of the attaching officer shall be sufficient notice for the purposes of this section. Such writ may be executed by the commissioner, his duly authorized agent or by any sheriff or constable in the state. Upon the seizure of the article or product described in the affidavit, it shall be the duty of the officer or person executing the writ to return same to the circuit court with his return thereon, and, within five days after its return, the court shall make up an issue between the state as plaintiff and the property seized as defendant. In the event that the owner or his agent cannot be found in this state, then said service may be perfected by posting a copy of the writ in a conspicuous place upon the premises where the goods were found and seized and by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail to the owner or his agent at his last known address, and this shall be deemed to be sufficient service of the notice required by this section. If upon the return day of such writ of attachment the owner of the article or product, his agent or other party having an interest in same thus notified fails to appear and show cause why said goods should not be condemned, judgment of condemnation and confiscation shall, upon such default, be entered by the court on the basis of said complaint. If such owner or agent or other party having an interest in such article or product shall, on or before the return day of the writ of attachment or upon such other day as the court upon application of such party may determine, file an answer upon oath denying the allegations of adulteration, misbranding or under standard, grade, weight or measure, as the case may be, in said complaint, the issue thus raised may be determined by the court after hearing all the evidence offered by or on behalf of all the parties to the proceedings. Any such party may demand a jury trial of any issue of fact to be determined in the proceedings instituted under this section; and, in case a jury trial is demanded, the judgment entered by the court shall be in accordance with the facts as found by such jury; provided, that the verdict of the jury may be set aside by the court where manifestly contrary to the evidence or law. If a judgment of condemnation and confiscation is entered against such article or product as being adulterated, misbranded or under standard, grade, weight or measure, within the meaning of any provision of law or rules and regulations under authority of law, the same shall be disposed of by destruction or sale as the court may direct, and the proceeds thereof, if sold, less the legal costs and charges shall be paid into the Agricultural Fund, but such goods shall not be sold contrary to the provisions of this article; provided, that upon the payment of the costs of such attachment proceedings and the execution and delivery of a good and sufficient bond to the effect that such article shall not be sold or otherwise disposed of contrary to the provisions of this article, the court may by order direct that such article or product shall be delivered to the owner thereof.

Legislative findings.
The Legislature has found and does hereby declare that bonds that are required by persons obtaining licenses and permits that are issued by the Commissioner of Agriculture and Industries or the Department or the Board of Agriculture and Industries are hard to obtain and unduly expensive.
Many times the person applying for the permit or license will have available funds such as cash or negotiable securities or credit, but existing statutes do not allow for these funds to be substituted in lieu of a bond.
It is, therefore, the purpose of this law to allow certain specified funds to be substituted in lieu of those bonds that are required to be obtained prior to being licensed or permitted.

The Legislature has found and determined and does hereby declare that in this state the following conditions exist:
(1) That there exists in this state an inadequate supply of funds at interest rates sufficiently low to enable persons engaged in agriculture in this state to continue their operations at present levels;
(2) That such inability to continue agricultural operations lessens the supply of agricultural commodities available to fulfill the needs of the citizens of this state;
(3) That such inability to continue operations decreases available employment in the agricultural sector of the state and results in unemployment and its attendant problems; and
(4) That it is necessary, desirable and in the best interest of the citizens of this state that provision be made for the establishment of a public corporation to promote the development of agriculture in this state by making available to persons engaged in agriculture in this state, at interest rates lower than would be otherwise obtainable, funds for use in agricultural operations and to vest such corporation with all powers that may be necessary to enable it to accomplish such purpose.

(a) The authority shall be governed by a board of directors, and all powers of the authority shall be exercised by the board or pursuant to its authorization.
(b) The board shall consist of seven directors. The Commissioner of Agriculture and Industries, the Director of Finance and the Superintendent of Banking shall be ex officio members of the board of directors. The remaining four directors shall be appointed, by the persons and in the manner hereinafter prescribed, as soon as may be practicable after the incorporation of the authority, for staggered terms as follows: The Speaker of the House of Representatives shall appoint one director and the President Pro Tempore of the Senate shall appoint one director each of whose initial terms shall begin immediately upon his respective appointment and shall end on September 30 in the fourth calendar year next following the calendar year in which the certificate of incorporation of the authority was issued; and the Governor shall appoint each of the two remaining directors whose initial terms shall begin immediately upon their respective appointments and shall end on September 30 in the second calendar year next following the calendar year in which the certificate of incorporation of the authority was issued. Thereafter, the term of office of each appointed director shall be four years, commencing on the October 1 next following the September 30 on which the term of the immediate predecessor director ended. If at any time there should be a vacancy on the board not heretofore provided for, a successor director shall be appointed to serve for the unexpired term applicable to such vacancy. The appointment of each appointed director (other than those initially appointed), whether for a full four-year term or to complete an unexpired term, shall be made by the same state officer who appointed the director whose term has expired or is to expire or in whose office a vacancy otherwise exists and shall be made not earlier than 30 days prior to the date on which such director is to take office as such.

Directors shall be eligible for reappointment.
(c) Each appointed director shall, at the time of his appointment and at all times during his term of office, be a qualified elector of the state; and a failure by any appointed director to remain so qualified during such term shall cause a vacancy of the office of such director. No officer or employee of the state or of any county, city or town therein, and no officer, employee, director or trustee of any lender or any affiliate thereof, shall be eligible for appointment as a director. The acceptance by an appointed director of any office or employment which, had such director held such office or been so employed at the time of his appointment as a director, would have rendered him ineligible for appointment as a director, shall cause a vacancy of the office of such director. Each director shall serve without compensation, except that he may be reimbursed for expenses actually incurred by him in and about the performance of his duties.
(d) A majority of the directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. No vacancy in the membership of the board or the voluntary disqualification or abstention of any member thereof shall impair the right of a quorum of the board to exercise all the powers and duties of the authority. Any appointed director may be impeached and removed from office in the same manner and on the same grounds provided by Section 175 of the Constitution of Alabama, or successor provision thereof, and the general laws of the state for impeachment and removal of the officers mentioned in said Section 175, or successor provisions thereof. All proceedings of the board shall be reduced to writing by the secretary of the authority and maintained in the permanent records of the authority. Copies of such proceedings, when certified by the secretary of the authority under the seal of the authority, shall be received in all courts as evidence of the matters therein certified.

The resolution under which the bonds are authorized to be issued or any such trust indenture or mortgage may contain any agreements and provisions respecting the maintenance and insurance of the property covered by such trust indenture or mortgage, the use of the revenues subject to such trust indenture or mortgage, the creation and maintenance of special funds from such revenues, the rights, duties and remedies of the parties to any such instrument and the parties for the benefit of whom such instrument is made and the rights and remedies available in the event of default as the board shall deem advisable and which are not in conflict with the provisions of this article.

The authority may pay all expenses, premiums and commissions in connection with any financing done by it. Whether or not any bonds of the authority, and any interest coupons appertaining thereto, are of such form and character as to be negotiable instruments under the terms of Title 7, all bonds, except bonds registered as to principal or as to both principal and interest, and any interest coupons applicable thereto issued by the authority shall be construed to be negotiable instruments although payable solely from a specified source.
(e) Nature of obligation and source of payment. All obligations created and all bonds issued by the authority shall be solely and exclusively an obligation of the authority and shall not create an obligation or debt of the state or a charge on its credit or taxing powers. Any bonds issued by the authority shall be limited or special obligations of the authority payable solely out of the revenues and other receipts of the authority specified in the proceedings authorizing those bonds.
(f) Eligibility for investment. Any bonds of the authority are hereby made legal investments for executors, administrators, trustees and other fiduciaries, unless otherwise directed by the court having jurisdiction of the fiduciary relation or by the document that is the source of the fiduciary's authority, and for savings banks and insurance companies organized under the laws of the state.

Any bonds of the authority shall be, in addition to the bonds and other securities enumerated in Section 41-14-2, and hereby are made securities which may be accepted as security or for which receipts can be accepted as security for the deposit of state funds, such bonds to be accepted at face or par value.

In the discretion of the authority, refunding bonds may be issued in exchange for such outstanding bonds or they may be sold and the proceeds thereof applied to the purchase, redemption or payment of such outstanding bonds. Refunding bonds to be issued in exchange for such outstanding bonds shall not be issued in a principal amount greater than the principal amount of the bonds to be refunded. Refunding bonds to be sold pursuant hereto may be issued in such principal amount or amounts as shall be determined by said authority. Pending the application of the proceeds of refunding bonds issued in accordance with this section, such proceeds, together with investment income therefrom, and moneys in any sinking fund for the bonds to be refunded, together with investment income therefrom, may be held by the State Treasurer, in trust, or may be deposited by the State Treasurer, in trust, on such terms as the State Treasurer shall approve, with one or more trustees or escrow agents which trustees or escrow agents shall be trust companies or national or state banks having powers of a trust company within or without the state, for investment in direct general obligations of, or obligations on which the payment of the principal of and interest on which are unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed by, the United States of America.

Proceeds of such refunding bonds shall be so invested and applied as to assure that the principal, interest, and redemption premium, if any, on the bonds to be refunded thereby shall be paid in full on their respective maturity, interest, or redemption payment dates. The State Treasurer may contract with respect to the safekeeping and application of proceeds derived from the sale and issuance of such refunding bonds and other funds included therewith and the income therefrom, including the right to appoint a trustee which may be any trust company or national or state bank having powers of a trust company within or without the state. As provided in Amendment 618, refunding bonds issued pursuant to the provisions of this article shall not be obligations of Alabama Agricultural Development Authority but shall be general obligations of the State of Alabama, and the full faith and credit and taxing power of the state are hereby irrevocably pledged for the prompt and faithful payment of the principal of all refunding bonds and the interest and redemption premium (if any) thereon. Except as herein expressly provided otherwise, all provisions of this article regarding the terms and conditions of the bonds to be issued pursuant to Section 2-3A-30, as well as the sale, issuance, and execution thereof and the security therefor, shall apply to all refunding bonds issued hereunder.
