2006 Alabama Code - Section 40-5-19 — Sale of real property if personalty insufficient.

When no personal property can be found out of which the taxes of any delinquent taxpayer can be collected, or an amount insufficient to fully satisfy such taxes, the real estate of such taxpayer or the real estate upon which such taxes are a lien shall be sold for the payment thereof, or of the balance due thereon, in the manner hereinafter prescribed. But the failure of the tax collector to so exhaust such personal property shall not invalidate the sale of any real estate.

(Acts 1935, No. 194, p. 256; Code 1940, T. 51, §208.)
