Robinson v. State
Alabama Court of Criminal Appeals · Decided October 8, 1985 · Taylor
477 So. 2d 981; 1985 Ala. Crim. App. LEXIS 5737 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Robinson v. State

Opinion of the Court

TAYLOR, Judge.

The Attorney General, by letter, declines to file a brief and concedes error in this case as to failure to file a “statement of the evidence relied on.” He requests that the case be remanded on the basis of Armstrong v. State, 294 Ala. 100, 312 So.2d 620 (1975). We find additional noncompliance of Armstrong in the matter of informing the probationer of the charges against him and in the giving of reasonable notice of such charges.

This cause is reversed and remanded for further proceedings consistent with the six due process requirements of Gagnon v. Scarpelli, 411 U.S. 778, 93 S.Ct. 1756, 36 L.Ed.2d 656 (1973), as listed in Armstrong, supra.

REVERSED AND REMANDED.

All the Judges concur.
