Ala. Code § 45-1-210

In Autauga County, when a personal check given for a motor vehicle license is found to be noncollectible for any reason, the judge of probate shall notify the license inspector who shall make a reasonable attempt to retrieve the motor vehicle license in question. In the event the motor vehicle license cannot be retrieved, the license inspector shall so state and the statement shall constitute authorization for the judge of probate to void the motor vehicle license. Upon voiding the motor vehicle license, the judge of probate shall receive credit for the cost of the motor vehicle license, sales and use tax, ad valorem tax, issuance fee, interest, and penalty for which payment was made on the non-collectible check. The appropriate state official shall mark the records pertaining to the void license accordingly and, upon inquiry by any law enforcement agency, shall notify the agency that the license in question is a void license. All violations shall be prosecuted in accordance with current law.
