Bills Back Prohibit Central Bank State National Merger
Alabama lawmakers consider two bills to block or allow the merger of Central Bank and Trust Co. of Birmingham and State National Bank of Decatur. The measures, introduced in House and Senate, keep pending in committee while a federal suit seeks to halt the merger.
