Alabama state regulations dictate that records documenting municipal activities for example court papers, arrest records, marriage licenses, traffic transgressions and more are open and offered to the public, largely as a result of the Alabama Public Records Law of 1923. This statute, itself in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act at the federal level, gives Notasulga citizens with information relating to cases of governmental intervention, including the names and addresses of those involved, the events leading up an incidence, outcomes and sentences passed down, and much more. These laws and regulations give the people of America, and Notasulga, the capability to examine and realize their rights, the precedents that brought about those rights, and whenever those rights are infringed upon, which in turn results in a more free and open society for all.
