On May 3, 2021, Governor Ivey signed the Safer Apart Executive Order that included recommendations that individuals and businesses are encouraged to follow. Restrictions and requirements have been lifted, except that there is still a mandate that any person(s) testing positive for COVID-19 be quarantined to their residence for the time specified by the State health Officer. Senior Citizen Centers are still required to follow guidelines issued by the Alabama Department of Senior Services. Hospitals and similar institutions must now allow visitation and accompanying caregivers with patients, subject to reasonable restrictions. This executive order will remain in effect until May 31, 2021.
Protections against and foreclosures evictions expired on June 1, 2020. There are currently no state imposed foreclosure or eviction moratoriums in the State of Alabama. Although most in person hearings have resumed, and the suspension for jury trials ended on September 14, 2020, some counties have continued to conduct hearings either telephonically or via video.

Alabama courts and clerks’ offices remain open and operational at this time. However, all in-court hearings (with very limited exceptions) have been cancelled beginning on March 16, 2020 and extending through at least April 16, 2020. All filing deadlines that are set to expire between March 16, 2020 and April 16, 2020 are extended to April 20, 2020, but only if those deadlines cannot be met via electronic filing. Out-of-court activities, such as depositions and mediations, are not prohibited and are to be determined on a case-by-case basis by the parties involved. All bankruptcy hearings are continuing as previously scheduled, but are being held telephonically in all three districts.
