AMENDED COMPLAINT TO QUIET TITLE

IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF ETOWAH COUNTY ALABAMA

Jonathan Leftwich,

Plaintiff

Nellie Griffin Simpson, Annie Jo Griffin, Myrtice G. Myers,

James Homer Griffin, Robert M. Griffin, Cecil S. Griffin,

Nancy B. Griffin Sprayberry, Charles S. Griffin, and

Fictitious Defendants I-Z, who are the other heirs of

Martha Alice Griffin, whose identities and whereabouts

are unknown, and all other persons claiming any present, future,

contingent, remainder, reversion, or other interest in the lands described herein

and

Lot Number Two (2) according to the resurvey of the Darling Gardner property made by Jerry Respess, Civil Engineer, as the same appears of record in Plat Book “B”, Page 369, said re-survey being a part of Block Number Two (2) of the McBuffie and Gardner Addition to the City of Gadsden, which Addition is recorded in Plat Book “B”, Page 123 in the Office of the Judge of Probate and lying and being in Gadsden, Etowah County, Alabama, together with all improvements located thereon.

Defendants

1. This action is brought pursuant to §§ 6-6-540, Code of Alabama (1975).

2. This Complaint amends and, to the extent it conflicts, supersedes the Plaintiff’s Complaint previously filed in this case.

3. Plaintiff is and has been since 2003 in the actual, peaceable, notorious, adverse possession of the property described below, claiming to own the same, and has held and holds color of title to the property, being the fee simple interest so claimed, for a period of ten or more consecutive years, and Plaintiff has duly assessed and paid ad valorem taxes thereon during Plaintiff’s period of ownership. The Plaintiff has made improvements to the property described herein and has incurred expenses for upkeep and maintenance.

4. The legal description of the subject property is as follows:

5. The Defendants herein are the Property and those persons named above, who are believed to be of legal age, and any and all parties claiming any present, future, contingent, reversionary, remainder, or other interest therein who may claim any interest in the Property. Plaintiff is not aware of any such persons who make such claims who are not individually named herein as defendants.

6. There are no other named defendants hereto because the Plaintiff has made diligent inquiry and has not been able to ascertain any other person making claim to or interest in the Property.

7. The Plaintiff holds color of title to the Property. The Plaintiff’s interest was obtained from his parents, Ronnie L. Leftwich, Sr., and Brenda Y. Leftwich. Deeds to Ronnie L. Leftwich, Sr., are recorded at D-2002-4839 and D-2003-1036. Ronnie L. Leftwich, Sr., died on October 12, 2010, and his estate was probated in the Probate Court of Etowah County, Alabama, Case No. S-6183. The surviving spouse of Ronnie L. Leftwich, Sr., was Brenda Y. Leftwich, who inherited her husband’s interest in the Property pursuant to the Last Will and Testament of Ronnie L. Leftwich, Sr. No deed was made from the Estate of Ronnie Lamar Leftwich, Sr., to Brenda Y. Leftwich. Brenda Y. Leftwich died on October 13, 2014, and her estate is probated in the Probate Court of Etowah County, Alabama, Case No. S-8230. Jonathan Leftwich was appointed executor of the estate of Brenda Y. Leftwich, and Jonathan Leftwich inherited the Property pursuant to the Last Will and Testament of Brenda Y. Leftwich. A Warranty Deed from the Estate of Brenda Y. Leftwich to the Plaintiff, Jonathan Leftwich, is recorded at Inst. # 3417050, Probate Office, Etowah County, Alabama.

8. The Plaintiff does not know of any person who claims any interest in the Property except as alleged in this Complaint.

9. There is no suit pending to test or determine the title to or any interest in, or right of possession of the Plaintiff in or to the Property and no suit is pending to test or determine any other title to, interest in, or right of possession of, the Property.

10. The Plaintiff has named as defendants hereto all persons who have had possession of the Property or any part thereof within ten years next preceding the filing of this Complaint or who are known to Plaintiff to claim any part or interest in the Property.

Wherefore, the Plaintiff amends its prayer for relief as follows: (1) that the Court keep the Guardian ad Litem to represent the interests of the unknown parties; (2) that the Court enter a judgment or decree that the Plaintiff has the entire and undivided fee simple interest in and to the Property with no restrictions thereon; and (3) that the Court enter such other relief as the Court deems proper.

If a successor is not confirmed by the conclusion of the regular session in which one or more names for the position were initially submitted, the former holder of the position may continue to serve until a successor is appointed and confirmed, but in no case shall this continuation be longer than one year after completion of the term of office.

“(r) If any position on the board of trustees becomes vacant during a term of office by reason of death, resignation, or other cause, a person shall be appointed by the appointing committee to fill the remainder of the unexpired term of office pursuant to the procedure provided for other appointments made by the appointing committee. The position shall be considered vacant until a person is confirmed by a majority vote of the entire Senate.

BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF ALABAMA:

Section 1. The following amendment to the Constitution of Alabama of 1901, as amended, is proposed and shall become valid as a part thereof when approved by a majority of the qualified electors voting thereon and in accordance with Sections 184, 285, and 287 of the Constitution of Alabama of 1901, as amended:

PROPOSED AMENDMENT

PART I.

The Legislature shall not pass any law authorizing nor shall any officer, agency, or employee transfer, use, or pledge any monies from the State Parks Fund, the Parks Revolving Fund, or any fund receiving revenues currently deposited in the State Parks Fund or the Parks Revolving Fund, and any monies currently designated by law and deposited into a public account for the use by the state parks system from being transferred to any other public account, fund or entity or used for any purpose other than the support, upkeep, and maintenance of the state parks system.

Notwithstanding, in the event that guest revenues to the State Parks Revolving Fund exceed the threshold of $50 million (as annually adjusted based on increases in the consumer price index) in a fiscal year, the sales and use and cigarette tax revenue distributed to benefit the State Parks System shall be reduced in the following fiscal year. The amount of the reduction shall correspond to the amount of guest revenue to the State Parks Revolving Fund exceeding the threshold. The amount of tax revenue not distributed to benefit the State Parks System shall be distributed to the General Fund.

PART II.

Amendment of Amendment 617.

The State of Alabama is authorized to become indebted for the purpose of the acquisition, provision, construction, improvement, renovation, equipping, and maintenance of the state parks system, public historical sites, and public historical parks, and in evidence of the indebtedness so incurred to sell and issue bonds, in addition to all other bonds of the state, not exceeding one hundred ten million dollars ($110,000,000) in aggregate principal amount. The bonds shall be direct general obligations of the state and the full faith and credit and taxing power of the state are hereby pledged to the prompt and faithful payment of the principal thereof and the interest thereon. One hundred four million dollars ($104,000,000) of the bonds shall be issued for the state by the Alabama State Parks System Improvement Corporation pursuant to the appropriate resolutions adopted by the board of directors of the corporation and the proceeds thereof shall be appropriated and used exclusively for the purpose of paying the expenses incurred in the sale and issuance of the bonds and for payment of the costs of the acquisition, provision, construction, improvement, renovation, equipping, and maintenance of the state parks system; provided, any lake acquired and/or built with the proceeds thereof by the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources as a part of a state park must have a minimum buffer of six hundred (600) lateral feet between the shoreline and any private property. In the event that the water from any said lake is sold, the cost thereof shall be equal to the periodic costs for that portion of the bond issue incurred by the Alabama State Parks System Improvement Corporation for said lake, and shall be repaid to the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources at the same rate as the debt service on said bond issue.

Six million dollars ($6,000,000) of the bonds shall be issued for the state by the Alabama Public Historical Sites and Parks Improvement Corporation pursuant to the appropriate resolutions adopted by the board of directors of the corporation and the proceeds thereof shall be appropriated and used exclusively for the purpose of paying the expenses incurred in the sale and issuance of the bonds and for the payment of the costs of the acquisition, provision, construction, improvement, renovations, equipping, and maintenance of public historical sites and public historical parks not under the jurisdiction of the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources. Such acquisition, provision, construction, improvement, renovation, equipping, and maintenance of public historical sites and public historical parks shall be completed at the direction of the Alabama Public Historical Sites and Parks Improvement Corporation and shall thereafter be operated by the Alabama Historical Commission, or other entity as authorized by the commission, with the advice and concurrence of the Joint Legislative Committee on State Parks.

The State of Alabama is further authorized to become indebted and in evidence thereof to sell and issue one or more series of bonds to refund all or any of the bonds hereinabove authorized by this amendment in such principal amount or amounts, which may exceed the principal amount of the bonds being refunded, and in such manner as may be provided by law duly enacted by the Legislature.

All of the bonds, including refunding bonds, shall be sold only at public sale or sales, either on sealed bids or at public auction, after such advertisement as may be prescribed by the corporations, to the bidder whose bid reflects the lowest true interest cost to the state computed to the respective maturities of the bonds sold; provided, that if no bid deemed acceptable by the corporation is received, all bids may be rejected.

The bonds shall be signed in the name of the state by the Governor of the State of Alabama and the Great Seal of the State of Alabama or a facsimile thereof shall be impressed, printed or otherwise reproduced thereon and shall be attested by the signature of the Secretary of State of the State of Alabama; provided that facsimile signatures of either or both of the officers may be reproduced on such bonds in lieu of their manually signing the same.

All bonds issued under the provisions of this amendment, together with the interest income thereon, shall forever be exempt from all taxation in the state, except inheritance, estate and gift taxes.

The proceeds from the sale of the bonds by the Alabama State Parks System Improvement Corporation hereby authorized, other than refunding bonds, after the payment of all expenses of the sale thereof, shall be set apart in a special fund in the State Treasury to be designated “The Alabama State Parks System Improvement Fund,” and such proceeds, together with income derived from the investment and reinvestment thereof, shall be temporarily invested until needed and disbursed, on order of the aforesaid corporation solely for the purposes, hereinabove described, for which the bonds are authorized to be issued.

No further authorization from the Legislature shall be a prerequisite to the validity of any bonds issued hereunder. However, the Legislature shall enact appropriate legislation implementing the provisions hereof, including provisions for the issuance of refunding bonds as hereinabove authorized.

The Alabama State Parks System Improvement Corporation and the Alabama Public Historical Sites and Parks Improvement Corporation authorized in this constitutional amendment are strongly encouraged to utilize businesses and companies in all aspects of the bond and construction portions of this amendment that reflect the racial and ethnic diversity of the state.

Section 3. The appropriate election official shall assign a ballot number for the proposed constitutional amendment on the election ballot and shall set forth the following description or subject matter of the proposed constitutional amendment:

“Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of Alabama of 1901, to prohibit any monies from the State Parks Fund, the Parks Revolving Fund, or any fund receiving revenues currently deposited in the State Parks Fund or the Parks Revolving Fund, and any monies currently designated pursuant to statute for the use of the state parks system from being transferred for another purpose other than the support, upkeep, and maintenance of the state parks system.

If the Legislature determines that a proposed constitutional amendment affects or applies to only one county or a political subdivision within one or more counties, the amendment may be adopted as a valid part of the constitution only by a favorable vote of a majority of the qualified electors of the affected county or, if applicable, the political subdivision and the county or counties in which the political subdivision is located, who vote on the amendment as provided in subsections (b) and (c). If the Legislature fails to determine that a proposed constitutional amendment affects or applies to only one county or a political subdivision within one or more counties pursuant to the procedures set out in subsection (b), the amendment may be adopted as a valid part of the constitution only by a favorable vote of a majority of the qualified electors who vote on the amendment in a statewide referendum, as provided in subsection (d), and a majority of the qualified voters of the affected county or counties voting on the amendments, as provided in subsection (d).

(b) To determine whether a proposed amendment shall be placed on the ballot in only one county or a political subdivision within one or more counties and the affected county or counties, as provided in subsection (a), the proposed amendment shall be approved by each house of the Legislature under the following process:

(1) The proposed amendment must first be approved, if at all, by at least three-fifths of all the members elected to the house in which it originates.

“Amendment 448.

“(A) The following words and phrases, whenever used in this amendment, shall have the following respective meanings:

“”Basic Appropriations” means, with respect to any regular session of the legislature, such appropriations as the legislature may deem appropriate for the expenditures by the state during the ensuing budget period for the ordinary expenses of the executive, legislative and judicial departments of the state, for payment of the public debt, and for education (excluding, however, any item within the scope of the foregoing that is at the time provided for by a continuing appropriation or otherwise).

“”Budget Period” means a fiscal year of the state or such period other than [a] fiscal year as may hereafter be fixed by law as the period with respect to which state budgets are prepared and state appropriations are made.

“(B) On or before the second legislative day of each regular session of the legislature, beginning with the first regular session after January 1, 1983, the governor shall transmit to the legislature for its consideration a proposed budget for the then next ensuing budget period.

“(C) The duty of the legislature at any regular session to make the basic appropriations for any budget period that will commence before the first day of any succeeding regular session shall be paramount; and, accordingly, beginning with the first regular session held after January 1, 1983, no bill (other than a bill making any of the basic appropriations) shall be signed by either the presiding officer of the house or senate and transmitted to the other house until bills making the basic appropriations for the then ensuing budget period shall have been signed by the presiding officer of each house of the legislature in accordance with Section 66 of this Constitution and presented to the governor in accordance with Section 125 of this Constitution; provided, that this paragraph (C) shall not affect the adoption of resolutions or the conduct of any other legislative functions that do not require a third reading; and provided further, that following adoption, by vote of either house of not less than three-fifths of a quorum present, of a resolution declaring that the provisions of this paragraph (C) shall not be applicable in that house to a particular bill, which shall be specified in said resolution by number and title, the bill so specified may proceed to final passage therein.

“(D) Upon the signing and presentation to the governor in accordance with the said Sections 66 and 125 of bills making the basic appropriations, the provisions of the foregoing paragraph (C) prohibiting the final passage of bills in the house and senate (other than bills making any part of the basic appropriations) shall cease to be effective and shall not be revived or become again effective as a result of (i) the subsequent legislative history of any bill so signed and presented, including any veto, return with executive amendment, or any other action, or failure to act, by either the governor or the legislature under the provisions of the said Section 125; or (ii) a determination, by either judicial decree or opinion of the justices of the Alabama Supreme Court, that any bill so signed and presented is wholly or in part invalid.

“(E) The legislature may, by statute or rule, make such further provisions for the timely passage of bills making the basic appropriations as are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Constitution.

“(F) Nothing contained herein shall be construed as requiring the legislature to make any appropriation not otherwise required by this Constitution to be made.

“(G) Notwithstanding any provision of this amendment, any resolution authorizing the consideration of a bill proposing a local law adopted before November 8, 2016, that conformed to the rules of either body of the Legislature at the time it was adopted, is ratified, approved, validated, and confirmed and the application of any such resolution is effective from the date of original adoption.”
