Exact replacement rows
| Identifier | Exact replacement | Precise dependencies and unchanged qualification |

| S_AL-P3-C031 — “Sources and pinpoints” cell | “S_AL-P3-S014, 15 U.S.C. §1692a(6), including the principal-purpose, owed-another, and false-name provisions; S_AL-P3-S016, Henson, slip-opinion pp. 2–4; S_AL-P3-S018, Glover/Booze, footnote 5 at printed opinion p. 8 / one-based PDF p. 8 / zero-index p. 7.” | Preserve the existing C031 assertion and limitation: original creditors are commonly outside the owed-another prong, but the statutory false-name and principal-purpose routes prevent a universal creditor exemption; actual business purpose and name usage matter. Glover/Booze footnote 5 supports the narrower principal-purpose “any debts” point and does not, by itself, establish the false-name rule, the owed-another analysis, or every theory contained in C031. Dependencies confirmed against S_AL-P3-S014, S_AL-P3-S016, S_AL-P3-S018, and the corrected locator in S_AL-P4-S011 / S_AL-P4-C013. |
| PASS-04 coverage mapping row 10 — “ACCA consumer and creditor definitions” | Corrected exact claim references: S_AL-P3-C014; S_AL-P4-C001 Relevant source pinpoints: S_AL-P4-S010 — expressly labeled 2025 Justia reproduction of §5-19-1(2)–(3); S_AL-P4-S001 — official §5-19-1 route opened only to a navigation shell. Status and unchanged hold: “Definitions were actually read only in the expressly labeled 2025 secondary mirror. The official route did not expose complete operative section text; no current official Code verification or 2026 currentness is established.” | S_AL-P4-C003 is removed entirely because it concerns the dated ALDOR handbook’s population tiers, fees, and collection-agency trigger and has no relationship to the ACCA “consumer” or “creditor” definitions. S_AL-P3-C014 supplies the substantive definition assertion; S_AL-P4-C001 supplies the official-text-access hold. No substitute proposition is added. |
Coverage and self-check
Both replacements were checked against the visible PASS-03 claim register and PASS-04 source, claim, and coverage-patch registers. No new authority was browsed or read, no substantive framework or mapping table was rerun, and no current-law, component, Alabama, A066, parent, operational, or publication acceptance follows.
END S_AL PASS-05.

Find the assertion and its boundaries
Read the evidence with its boundaries. These are saved research components, including revisions. A scoped coordinator review checks selected evidence; it does not certify every claim, a complete jurisdiction, current law or individual applicability. Dates and access limits remain attached to the records.
Sources, pinpoints and access limits
Keep the source version, actual read extent and jurisdiction with the proposition. A link or researcher access claim is not a substitute for an operative primary passage.
What was examined—and what is still missing
The saved component-level coverage record keeps answered, partial, blank and unresolved branches distinct. A coverage label is not acceptance of a whole subject or jurisdiction.
Corrections, review and scope
Read the evidence with its boundaries. These are saved research components, including revisions. A scoped coordinator review checks selected evidence; it does not certify every claim, a complete jurisdiction, current law or individual applicability. Dates and access limits remain attached to the records.
No currently queued material correction is mapped to this component. This does not remove its currentness, access, jurisdiction or application limits.
