Section 28-4-281

Correction of defects or irregularities in notice, etc., in forfeiture and condemnation proceedings.

Whenever in any proceedings for forfeiture and condemnation of liquors and beverages and vessels and receptacles it shall appear to the judge or court that there has been any irregularity in the service of any process or notice or any omission to post or serve notices required or any defect in the affidavit or notice or in the service or return of either, the judge or court may permit the same to be amended and may direct such further service of process or of notice as will, in the judgment of the judge or court, be most effectual in securing notice of the proceeding to those who may be entitled thereto and so that the proceeding may not fail for any irregularity or technicality.
