Bill > HB301

This bill abolishes the constable office in Choctaw County, Alabama, effective at the end of the term of any constable serving on June 1, 2025. Currently, each precinct in Choctaw County has a constable position as provided by Chapter 23, Title 36 of the Alabama Code. When the current constable's term ends on June 1, 2025, the office will be completely eliminated, meaning no new constables will be appointed or elected in Choctaw County after that date. A constable is typically a local law enforcement official responsible for various duties such as serving warrants, providing court security, or executing civil court orders. The bill specifically targets Choctaw County's constable positions and does not appear to affect constable offices in other Alabama counties. The legislation will take effect on June 1, 2025, which allows the current officeholder to complete their term before the position is abolished.
