Right to cure / redeem in Alabama

Yes, limited. For nonpayment, the tenant can pay the rent and late fees named in the notice within 7 business days. Other remediable breaches can be cured within 7 business days of the notice. A tenant may not cure more than twice in 12 months without the landlord's written consent, and some acts (e.g., illegal drugs, illegal firearm use on the premises) are non-curable defaults ended on 7 days' notice.
