Statutory amount2× original deposit
Applies to the late-mailing condition stated in subsection (f).
Timing predicate60-day period
Confirm the correct termination and possession dates first.
Do not treat the remedy as a button-click conclusion
Whether the statutory condition is satisfied depends on the actual termination, possession, mailing and address facts. RentBillCheck presents the source framework but does not determine liability in an individual dispute.
Verify the trigger and mailing facts. Alabama’s 60-day rule depends on termination and delivery of possession, and the forwarding-address/mailing record can matter. Educational information only.
