¶2I dissent from the main opinion remanding this case for the Mobile Circuit Court to enter a new probation-revocation order. In my opinion, the court's order contains the reasons for revoking Murphy's probation (he violated a condition of his probation) and a statement of the evidence relied upon (the testimony of Murphy's probation officer and Officer Paul Meynard), as mandated by Armstrong v. State, 294 Ala. 100,312 So.2d 620 (1975), and Wyatt v. State, 608 So.2d 762 (Ala. 1992). Accordingly, I would affirm the court's revocation of Murphy's probation. Therefore, I must dissent.
