This Ogletree, Deakins, Nash, Smoak & Stewart, P.C. memorandum discusses the US District Court of the Northern District of Alabama's ruling on Alabama's controversial immigration law. The court held that several provisions could not be enforced pending a final judgment on the law's constitutionality. However, the ruling does not affect the provision requiring Alabama employers to use the federal E-Verify program to confirm an applicant's legal immigration status.
