Alabama Power Co. v. Coosa Valley Electric Cooperative, Inc.

MADDOX, Justice.

This appeal involves a dispute between two electrical suppliers over the right to supply retail electrical power to a new radio station that is located on land that lies in both Shelby and St. Clair Counties, but outside municipal corporate limits. There are two basic legal issues presented. One relates to the proper venue of the action and the other involves the proper interpretation of legislative acts that regulate supplying electricity to private customers. Because we reverse and remand this case for further proceedings in Shelby County, we do not address the second issue.
