1. “"The United States Supreme Court spoke to the issue of whether a probationer must be afforded an attorney during probation revocation proceedings in Gagnon v. Scarpelli , 411 U.S. 778 , 93 S.Ct. 1756 , 36 L.Ed.2d 656 (1973). In Gagnon , the Court held the following: "`It is neither possible nor prudent to attempt to formulate a precise and detailed set of guidelines to be followed in determining when the providing of counsel is necessary to meet the applicable due process requirements. . . . Presumptively, it may be said that counsel should be provided in cases where, after being informed of his right to request counsel , the probationer or parolee makes such a request . . . In every case in which a request for counsel at a preliminary or final hearing is refused, the grounds for refusal should be stated succinctly in the record .'”

2. “"The record is devoid of any statement of the grounds the trial court may have had for refusing counsel for the appellant. The record is devoid of any evidence that the appellant requested an attorney. However, there is also no evidence to indicate that the appellant was advised by the court at any time during the proceeding that he had a right to request an attorney . "Therefore, pursuant to the guidelines set forth in Gagnon , supra , and applied by the Alabama Supreme Court in Armstrong v. State , 294 Ala. 100 , 312 So.2d 620 (1975), the judgment is reversed and the cause remanded to the circuit court. . . ."”
