Ala. Code § 16-33B-8: Legal Counsel for Program.

The Attorney General or his agent shall act as legal counsel to ACHE for the Alabama Guaranteed Student Loan Program. When the collection of loans on which ACHE has met its guarantee obligation requires legal action outside the State of Alabama, ACHE, upon recommendation of the Attorney General, may employ private, out-of-state counsel and expend its own funds to pay for this service.
