Item 1. Security and Issuer

        This is the fifth amendment to the original Schedule 13D, which was filed on March 29, 2004 (the “Original Schedule 13D”), amended on November 21, 2005 (the “First Amendment”), on December 5, 2005 (the “Second Amendment”), on December 16, 2005 (the “Third Amendment”), and on January 6, 2006 (the "Fourth Amendment"). This Fifth Amendment is filed jointly by Stilwell Value Partners IV, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Stilwell Value Partners IV”), Stilwell Associates, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Stilwell Associates”), Stilwell Value LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Stilwell Value LLC”) and the general partner of Stilwell Value Partners IV and Stilwell Associates, and Joseph Stilwell, managing and sole member of Stilwell Value LLC. All of the filers of this Schedule 13D are collectively referred to as the “Group”.

        This statement relates to the common stock (“Common Stock”) of Community Bancshares, Inc. (“Issuer”). The address of the principal executive offices of Issuer is 68149 Main Street, Blountsville, Alabama 35031. The joint filing agreement of the members of the Group is attached to the Original Schedule 13D as Exhibit 1.

Item 2. Identity and Background

    (a)-(c)        This statement is filed by Joseph Stilwell, with respect to the shares of Common Stock held in the names of Stilwell Value Partners IV and Stilwell Associates, in Mr. Stilwell’s capacity as the managing and sole member of Stilwell Value LLC, which is the general partner of Stilwell Value Partners IV and Stilwell Associates.

        The business address of the Group is 26 Broadway, 23^rd Floor, New York, New York 10004.

        The principal employment of Mr. Stilwell is investment management.

CUSIP No. 20343H 10 6 SCHEDULE 13D Page 7 of 18 Pages

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

        The Group’s purpose in acquiring shares of Common Stock is to profit from their appreciation through the assertion of shareholder rights. The Group does not believe the value of Issuer’s assets is adequately reflected in the Common Stock’s current market price.

        Members of the Group are filing this Fifth Amendment to report, as further discussed below, that on February 10, 2006, the Group demanded Issuer’s shareholders list.

        Members of the Group believe that Issuer’s management has made good progress in resolving Issuer’s regulatory issues, lawsuits, problem loans, and non-performing assets. However, members of the Group believe that Issuer’s return on equity is substantially below average, and that its return on equity is likely to remain below average for the foreseeable future. As previously reported, members of the Group therefore believe that Issuer should be sold and, if Issuer does not announce a sale, the Group will solicit proxies to elect an alternate slate at the 2006 annual meeting.

        On December 2, 2005, the Group sent a letter to Issuer demanding that Issuer confirm whether it interprets its bylaws to prohibit shareholders from nominating an alternate slate of directors and, if so, stating that the Group would sue Issuer to nullify Issuer’s bylaws to enable the Group to nominate an alternate slate. The Issuer confirmed to the Group that (a) nothing in Issuer’s Bylaws, charter or other corporate documents precludes the Group from nominating its own alternate slate of directors at Issuer’s annual meeting or the Group’s nominees from being elected as directors if they receive a plurality of the votes duly cast at the meeting; and (b) if a shareholder solicits and obtains valid proxies pursuant to its own duly filed proxy statement, Issuer will permit that shareholder to nominate its alternate slate at the annual meeting and will recognize such nomination.

        On January 6, 2006, the Group sent a letter to Issuer identifying the three people it plans to nominate for election as directors at Issuer’s 2006 annual meeting, to wit: Spencer L. Schneider, Joseph D. Stilwell and Charles E. Ward, III.

        On February 9, 2006, Issuer announced it expanded its board to 12 seats and added two new directors. On February 10, 2006, the Group demended Issuer’s shareholders list. A copy of the demand is attached as Exhibit 5 to this Fifth Amendment.

        Members of the Group reserve the right, in the future, without limitation: (a) to communicate and discuss their views with other shareholders and make proposals to Issuer’s Board and management regarding (i) representation on Issuer’s Board, or (ii) a sale or merger of Issuer; or (b) to solicit proxies or written consents from other shareholders of Issuer with respect to Board representation or other proposals for shareholder action.

CUSIP No. 20343H 10 6 SCHEDULE 13D Page 8 of 18 Pages

        On May 1, 2000, certain members of the Group (the “Stilwell SPN Group”) filed a Schedule 13D in connection with the common stock of Security of Pennsylvania Financial Corp. (“SPN”). Thereafter, the Stilwell SPN Group communicated with management of SPN and scheduled a meeting with senior management in order to discuss maximizing short and long-term value of SPN’s assets. On June 2, 2000, prior to the scheduled meeting, SPN and Northeast Pennsylvania Financial Corp. announced the signing of a definitive agreement under which Northeast Pennsylvania Financial Corp. agreed to acquire SPN and the Stilwell SPN Group disposed of its shares of SPN on the open market.

        On July 7, 2000, certain members of the Group (the “Stilwell CMRN Group”) filed a Schedule 13D in connection with the common stock of Cameron Financial Corporation (“Cameron”). Thereafter the Stilwell CMRN Group exercised its shareholder rights by, among other things, requesting that Cameron management hire an investment banker, demanding Cameron’s list of shareholders, meeting with Cameron’s management, demanding that Cameron invite the Stilwell CMRN Group’s representatives to join the Board, writing to other Cameron shareholders to express their dismay with management’s inability to maximize shareholder value and publishing that letter in the local press. On October 6, 2000, Cameron announced that it had entered into an agreement to be acquired by Dickinson Financial Corp. and the Stilwell CMRN Group disposed of its shares of Cameron on the open market.

        On January 4, 2001, certain members of the Group (the “Stilwell CFIC Group”) filed a Schedule 13D in connection with the common stock of Community Financial Corp. (“CFIC”). The Stilwell CFIC Group reported that it acquired the stock of CFIC for investment purposes after CFIC announced the sale of two of its four subsidiary banks and its intention to sell one or more of its remaining subsidiaries. On January 25, 2001, CFIC announced the sale of one of its remaining subsidiaries. The Stilwell CFIC Group then announced its intention to run an alternate slate of directors at the 2001 annual meeting if CFIC did not sell the remaining subsidiary by then. On March 27, 2001, members of the Stilwell CFIC Group wrote to CFIC confirming that CFIC had agreed to meet with one of the Stilwell CFIC Group’s proposed nominees to the Board. On March 30, 2001, before the meeting took place, CFIC announced that it had agreed to be merged with First Financial Corporation. The Stilwell CFIC Group, having accomplished its purpose of maximizing shareholder value, announced that it would not seek representation on the Board or solicit proxies for use at the annual meeting.

        On February 23, 2001, certain members of the Group (the “Stilwell MONT Group”) filed a Schedule 13D in connection with the common stock of Montgomery Financial Corporation (“Montgomery”). In its Schedule 13D, the Stilwell MONT Group stated that it acquired the stock of Montgomery for investment purposes and that it believed the value of Montgomery’s assets exceeded its current market price. On April 20, 2001, members of the Stilwell MONT Group met with Montgomery’s management, suggested to management that it should maximize shareholder value by selling the institution and notified management that it would run an alternate slate of directors at the 2001 annual meeting unless Montgomery entered into a transaction. Eleven days after the Schedule 13D was filed, Montgomery’s Board amended its bylaws to require that nominees to its Board must: (a) reside locally, (b) have a loan or deposit relationship with Montgomery’s subsidiary bank for at least twelve months prior to nomination, (c) have served as a member of a local civic or community organization for at least twelve months during the five years prior to the nomination to the Board, and (d) own 100 shares of Montgomery’s stock. Additionally, the amended bylaws shortened the time for shareholders to notice their intention to nominate

CUSIP No. 20343H 10 6 SCHEDULE 13D Page 9 of 18 Pages

alternate directors at the 2001 annual meeting. On June 5, 2001, Montgomery announced that it had hired an investment banking firm, to “help evaluate available alternatives to improve financial performance and maximize shareholder value. . . . [including] a potential acquisition or merger.” On June 13, 2001, the Stilwell MONT Group timely noticed its intention to nominate to Montgomery’s Board two persons who qualified under the amended bylaws. On July 24, 2001, Montgomery announced that it signed a definitive agreement with Union Community Bancorp (“Union”) providing for the merger of Montgomery into Union.

        On June 14, 2001, certain members of the Group (the “Stilwell HCBB Group”) filed a Schedule 13D in connection with the common stock of HCB Bancshares, Inc. (“HCBB”). On or about September 4, 2001, the Stilwell HCBB Group reported that it had entered into a standstill agreement with HCBB whereby, among other things, HCBB would appoint a director selected by the Stilwell HCBB Group. HCBB also agreed to consider conducting a Dutch tender auction. Additionally, HCBB agreed to adopt annual financial targets. HCBB also agreed that if it did not achieve the financial targets, it would retain an investment banking firm to help it to explore available alternatives to maximizing shareholder value. On October 22, 2001, the Stilwell HCBB Group reported that HCBB had named its nominee, John G. Rich, Esq., as a director. On January 31, 2002, HCBB announced a modified Dutch tender auction to repurchase 20% of its shares. Subsequent to the standstill agreement, HCBB announced and completed a number of 5% share repurchase programs, and, between the filing of the Stilwell HCBB Group’s Schedule 13D and up until August 31, 2003, HCBB’s outstanding share count decreased by 33%. HCBB did not achieve the financial target enumerated in the standstill agreement for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003. Pursuant to the terms of the standstill agreement, on August 12, 2003, HCBB announced that it retained Gerrish & McCreary PC (a regional investment banking firm) to assist HCBB in exploring available alternatives for maximizing shareholder value, including a sale of HCBB. On January 14, 2004, HCBB announced that it had agreed to be acquired by Rock Bancshares Inc. and, having accomplished its objective of maximizing shareholder value, the Stilwell HCBB Group disposed of its shares of HCBB on the open market.

        On December 15, 2000, certain members of the Group (the “Stilwell OTFC Group”) filed a Schedule 13D in connection with the common stock of Oregon Trail Financial Corp. (“OTFC”). In January 2001, members of the Stilwell OTFC Group met with the management of OTFC to discuss its concerns that management was not maximizing shareholder value and it proposed that OTFC voluntarily place its nominees on the Board. OTFC rejected the Stilwell OTFC Group’s proposal, and the Stilwell OTFC Group immediately announced its intention to solicit proxies to elect a Board nominee. OTFC refused to produce its complete shareholder list to the Stilwell OTFC Group, which sued OTFC in Baker County, Oregon. The court ultimately ordered OTFC to produce the complete list and to pay $10,000 in attorneys’ fees to the Stilwell OTFC Group. The Stilwell OTFC Group also initiated lawsuits against two OTFC directors, alleging that one director had allegedly violated OTFC’s residency requirement and that the other director had allegedly committed perjury while testifying about his co-director in the first suit. Both suits were dismissed pre-trial but the Stilwell OTFC Group filed an appeal in one suit and was permitted to re-file the other suit in state court. On or about August 16, 2001, the Stilwell OTFC Group began to solicit proxies from shareholders to elect Kevin D. Padrick, Esq. to the Board of OTFC. On September 12, 2001, OTFC filed suit against the Manhattan-based Stilwell OTFC Group in Portland, Oregon’s federal district court and moved to invalidate the Stilwell OTFC Group’s proxies, but the court denied the motion and the election proceeded. During the election, OTFC announced the hiring of an investment banking firm. The Stilwell OTFC Group argued in its proxy materials that OTFC

CUSIP No. 20343H 10 6 SCHEDULE 13D Page 10 of 18 Pages

should have used its excess capital to repurchase its shares at prices below book value. In the five months after the filing of the Stilwell OTFC Group’s first proxy statement (i.e., from August 1, 2001 through December 31, 2001), OTFC repurchased approximately 15% of its shares.

        On October 12, 2001, at OTFC’s Annual Meeting, OTFC’s shareholders elected the Stilwell OTFC Group’s candidate to the Board by a 2-1 margin. On March 12, 2002, OTFC and members of the Stilwell OTFC Group entered into a standstill agreement pursuant to which, among other things, OTFC agreed to achieve annual targets for its return on equity, to reduce its current capital ratio, to obtain advice from its investment banker regarding annual 10% stock repurchases, to re-elect the Stilwell OTFC Group’s director to the Board at the end of his current term, to maintain a seat for the Stilwell OTFC Group’s director, or a replacement director, for five years, to reimburse a portion of the Stilwell OTFC Group’s expenses incurred in the proxy contest, and to withdraw, with prejudice, the pending lawsuit against members of the Stilwell OTFC Group. In exchange, members of the Stilwell OTFC Group agreed, among other things, to refrain from seeking additional seats on OTFC’s Board and to support OTFC. On or about February 24, 2003, OTFC and FirstBank NW Corp. (“FBNW”) announced the signing of a definitive agreement whereby OTFC and FBNW would be merged, and the Stilwell OTFC Group subsequently announced that, having accomplished its objective of maximizing shareholder value, it had disposed of substantially all of its shares on the open market.

        On November 25, 2002, certain members of the Group (the “Stilwell ACAP Group”) filed a Schedule 13D in connection with the common stock of American Physicians Capital, Inc. (“ACAP”). The Schedule 13D reported that on January 18, 2002, the Michigan Insurance Department approved the Stilwell ACAP Group’s petition for permission to solicit proxies to elect two directors to ACAP’s Board. On January 29, 2002, Stilwell Associates noticed its intention to nominate two directors at the 2002 annual meeting. On February 20, 2002, the Stilwell ACAP Group entered into a three-year standstill agreement with ACAP wherein, among other things, ACAP added the Stilwell ACAP Group’s nominee, Spencer L. Schneider, Esq., to its Board. Additionally, ACAP agreed, subject to its Board’s fiduciary duties and regulatory approval, to consider using a portion of its excess capital to repurchase ACAP’s shares in each of the fiscal years 2002 and 2003 so that its outstanding share count would decrease by 15% for each of those years. In its 2002 fiscal year, ACAP repurchased 15% of its outstanding shares. Such repurchases were highly accretive to ACAP’s per share book value. Since the filing of the Schedule 13D: (a) on November 6, 2003, ACAP announced a reserve charge and that it would explore its options to maximize shareholder value — it subsequently announced it had retained Sandler O’Neill & Partners, L.P. to assist the Board in this regard; (b) on November 6, 2003, ACAP also announced that it would exit from the healthcare and workers compensation insurance businesses; (c) on December 2, 2003, ACAP announced that its President and Chief Executive Officer, William Cheeseman, would take early retirement on December 31, 2003; (d) on December 23, 2003, ACAP named R. Kevin Clinton as its new President and Chief Executive Officer; and (e) on June 24, 2004, ACAP announced that, after a diligent and thorough review and examination, the Board determined that the best means to maximize shareholder value is to continue to execute ACAP’s current business strategy of shedding non-core businesses and focusing on its core business line in its core markets. On August 19, 2004, the Stilwell ACAP Group disclosed that it intended to seek additional representation on the Board and exercise its shareholder rights upon the expiration of the standstill agreement. On November 10, 2004, at ACAP’s invitation, Joseph Stilwell joined ACAP’s Board of Directors and the parties entered into a new standstill agreement providing for Mr. Stilwell and Mr. Schneider to remain on the Board through the annual meeting in 2008.

CUSIP No. 20343H 10 6 SCHEDULE 13D Page 11 of 18 Pages

        On June 30, 2003, certain members of the Group (the “Stilwell FPIC Group”) filed a Schedule 13D in connection with the common stock of FPIC Insurance Group, Inc. (“FPIC”). The Stilwell FPIC Group also reported that at such times as the market price of FPIC stock more adequately reflects the value of its assets, the Stilwell FPIC Group reserved its right to make additional dispositions of its holdings of FPIC stock irrespective of FPIC having taken steps to maximize shareholder value. On August 12, 2003, the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation approved the Stilwell FPIC Group’s application to acquire more than 5% of FPIC’s shares of common stock and to hold board seats and exercise its shareholder rights. On November 10, 2003, pursuant to the Group’s request to FPIC, the Group’s nominee, John G. Rich, Esq., became a director of FPIC. In connection with Mr. Rich’s appointment to the Board, FPIC and members of the Group entered into a confidentiality agreement. On June 7, 2004, the Stilwell FPIC Group reported that, inasmuch as FPIC’s shares were somewhat less undervalued because of the substantial increase in the market price of the stock, it had decreased its holdings of FPIC to below 5%.

        On June 20, 2005, certain members of the Group (the "Stilwell PBIP Group") filed a Schedule 13D in connection with the common stock of Prudential Bancorp, Inc. of Pennsylvania ("PBIP"), disclosing their belief that PBIP should include shareholders who beneficially own a substantial number of its shares and that they intend to seek a board seat. PBIP is majority owned by a mutual holding company controlled by its management. Although it has the ability to outvote public shareholders on most corporate actions, pursuant to federal regulations, it cannot vote on approval of its stock benefit plans; only PBIP's public shareholders can vote on them. In July 2005, Mr. Stilwell asked to be placed on PBIP’s board, but PBIP refused. PBIP's prospectus indicated its intention to seek shareholder approval of its stock benefit plans. But after the Stilwell PBIP Group announced its intention to solicit proxies to oppose approval of the stock benefit plans unless PBIP added Mr. Stilwell to its board, PBIP decided not to submit any stock benefit plans to a shareholder vote. Therefore, the Stilwell PBIP Group solicited proxies from shareholders to withhold their votes on the election of directors as a referendum that PBIP should appoint a public shareholder with substantial share holdings to its board. At PBIP's February 3, 2006, annual meeting, 71% of its voting public shares were withheld from voting on the election of directors, according to preliminary results from the independent inspector of elections. The Stilwell PBIP Group intends to hold its PBIP shares indefinitely, and if PBIP seeks shareholder approval of its stock benefit plans in the future, the Stilwell PBIP Group intends to solicit proxies to oppose approval.

        On January 19, 2006, certain members of the Group (the "Stilwell SKP Group") filed a Schedule 13D in connection with the common stock of SCPIE Holdings, Inc. ("SKP"). The Stilwell SKP Group announced its intention to run an alternate slate of directors at the 2006 annual meeting and requested SKP's shareholder list. SKP failed to timely produce the list and the Stilwell SKP Group sued it in Delaware Chancery Court on January 25, 2006. On February 3, 2006, SKP agreed to provide its shareholder list to the Stilwell SKP Group.

        Members of the Group may make further purchases of shares of Common Stock. Members of the Group may dispose of any or all the shares of Common Stock held by them, although they have no current plans to do so. Except as noted in this Schedule 13D, no member of the Group has any plans or proposals which relate to, or could result in, any of the matters referred to in paragraphs (a) through (j), inclusive, of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. Members of the Group may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their positions and formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

        The percentages used in this Fifth Amendment are calculated based upon the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, 8,680,415, reported as of October 19, 2005, in Issuer’s Form 10-Q dated November 10, 2005. The March 19, 2004 purchase of shares of Common Stock by Stilwell Value Partners IV was made in an open market transaction on the Over the Counter

CUSIP No. 20343H 10 6 SCHEDULE 13D Page 12 of 18 Pages

Bulletin Board. The March 2, 2004 purchases of shares of Common Stock by members of the Group were made in a private placement transaction with Issuer. The March 3, 2005, sale of 8,000 shares of Common Stock by Stilwell Value Partners IV was made in an open market transaction on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board.

    1.        A complete record or list of the Company’s shareholders, certified by its transfer agent and setting forth the name and address of each shareholder of the Company and the number of shares of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”) registered in the name of each shareholder of the Company.

    2.        In digital or electronic format, such as magnetic computer tape or Excel, a list of the Company’s shareholders, setting forth the name and address of each shareholder and the number of shares of Common Stock registered in the name of each shareholder, together with any computer processing information that may be relevant to the use of such format, and a printout of the information on such format for verification purposes.

    3.        All information in or which comes into the Company’s possession or control, or which can reasonably be obtained from nominees of any central certificate depository system, concerning the number and identity of the actual beneficial owners of Common Stock, including a list of all owners who hold Common Stock in the name of Cede & Co. or other similar nominees and any respondent bank listings obtained pursuant to the requirements of Rule 14b-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and a list or lists containing the name, address, and number of shares of Common Stock attributable to participants in any employee stock ownership, incentive, profit sharing, savings, retirement, stock option, stock purchase, restricted stock or other comparable plan of the Company in which the voting of shares held by such plan is made, directly or indirectly, individually or collectively, by participants in such plan.
