Solicitor's reports, 1898-1910.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/86124362

By a legislative act of 1883 Feb. 5, solicitors of the local courts (city courts, circuit courts, etc.) were required to send reports to the attorney general at the end of each term of court. The reports show the number of criminal cases, types of offenses, and their disposition. The reports provided the raw data which was included in the attorney general's biennial report. The law requiring these reports was repealed by an act of the legislature on 1943 July 12. Previously, in 1935, an act was passed requiring the attorney general to publish quarterly reports of official opinions instead of biennial reports. The office of solicitor was abolished effective 1977 Jan. 16, by the Code of Ala. 1975.
