SB106 - Alabama Prisoner Litigation Reform Act

• Requires prisoners to exhaust all available administrative remedies before filing pro se civil actions under state law, with courts dismissing actions that violate this requirement without prejudice.

• Mandates the Department of Corrections and private contractors adopt and prominently post written administrative complaint procedures for prisoners relating to confinement conditions and government official actions.

• Prisoners granted in forma pauperis status must repay filing fees and costs through monthly installments equal to 20 percent of average monthly prisoner account balance over the preceding 12 months.

• Prohibits prisoners from asserting claims for mental or emotional injury without first showing physical injury, and bars consolidation of multiple prisoners' actions or class action lawsuits.

• Requires any prisoner release orders related to prison conditions to be decided by a three-judge panel and only upon clear and convincing evidence that crowding is the primary cause of rights violation and no other relief will remedy it.
