1975The first enumeration urges error in the failure to appoint an attorney to represent the child because "appellant, a minor girl, was represented only by a parent whose interest conflicted with appellant's in that said parent was the same person who brought the charges of violation of probation to the Court's attention and caused a petition demanding adjudication of those charges to be filed." Appellee argues absence of merit to this contention is two-fold: (a) there is no right to counsel in probation revocation hearings; and (b) even if entitled to counsel as an absolute right, there was an e

1952It is contended by the-plaintiff that, under the principle of law held in Shropshire v. Heard, 27 Ga. App. 256 ( 107 S. E. 892 )—that “The plaintiff sued on an alleged express contract, . . he was not entitled to recover on a quantum meruit”-—-the foregoing charges were error and prejudicial to him and permitted the jury to find for a lesser sum than the contract price.- The jury having found against the contentions of the plaintiff that he had complied with the express contract with the defendants as set up by him—he would be, under his own contentions, therefore, entitled to nothing.
