Construction Services v. RAM-Robertsdale — “Mis-Licensure” Is Not “Non-Licensure” Under Alabama’s General Contractors Act
The Alabama Supreme Court unanimously reversed summary judgment for a subdivision developer, holding that a general contractor holding a valid Building Construction license did not void its contract by lacking a Municipal and Utility classification at signing—reaffirming the substantial-compliance exception from McNairy v. Sugar Creek Resort and refusing to equate “mis-licensure” with “non-licensure” under the Alabama General Contractor’s Practice Act.
