Alabama § 37-6-23

• Jurisdiction: Alabama
• Title 37: Public Utilities and Public Transportation
• Ch. 6: Electric Cooperatives
• Art. 1: General Provisions

Text

Any mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument executed by a cooperative or foreign corporation transacting business in this state pursuant to this chapter, which, by its terms, creates a lien upon real and personal property then owned or after acquired and which is recorded as a mortgage of real property in any county in which such property is located or is to be located, shall have the same force and effect as if the mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument were also recorded or filed in the proper office in such county as a mortgage of personal property. Recordation of any such mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument shall cause the lien thereof to attach to all after acquired property of the mortgagor of the nature therein described as being mortgaged or pledged thereby, immediately upon the acquisition of such property by the mortgagor, and such lien shall be superior to all claims of creditors of the mortgagor and purchasers of such property and to all other liens, except liens of prior record and tax liens affecting such property.
