1. “"We interpret what was said in Gault and Kent, when read together, to mean that the basic requirements of the due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment require assistance of counsel whether it results in a transfer order or a commitment order. The purpose for creating juvenile courts was not to deprive a juvenile of his rights but to ameliorate the harshness of the criminal law." Id. 206 So.2d at 27 . "Therefore, we feel that the ruling in Gault must apply to cases both prospectively and retroactively." Id. 206 So.2d at 27-28 . (Emphasis added)”
