Ala. Code § 34-6-33
If any licensee shall voluntarily relinquish personal supervision, management, and control of any billiard room, he or she shall surrender his or her license to the probate judge who may issue a new license to some other person, firm, or corporation to continue the business, under the provisions of this chapter, in which event credit shall be given for the unused portion of the surrendered license. But if any licensee shall relinquish management of the business as aforesaid without surrendering his or her license for reissue as hereinbefore provided, the license shall be deemed to be forfeited and the probate judge may order the sheriff of the county or the chief law enforcement officer of the State of Alabama to close the place of business.
