Section 80-3-13-.03 - Reporting Requirements For Livestock Markets(1)Code of Ala. 1975, § 2-15-82, requires every livestock market to report to the Commissioner the identity of every livestock dealer who does not pay for livestock purchased by him by the close of the next business day following the date of the purchase.(2) Since there is no statutory provision requiring when this reporting must be done to the Commissioner, it is determined that the livestock market must report within a reasonable time.(3) For purposes of reporting as required under § 2-15-82, a reasonable time is hereby interpreted to mean two (2) weeks from the time the purchase money for the livestock is due.(4) Henceforth, all livestock markets shall report to the Commissioner the failure of a livestock dealer to pay for livestock purchased by the close of the next business day, within, or by, the expiration of two (2) weeks from the time the purchase money was due.(5) Failure of a livestock market to comply with this requirement will subject the market to the provisions of Code of Ala. 1975, § 2-15-85.
