## Opinion text

TONGUE, J.,
Dissenting.
I respectfully dissent from the opinion by the majority because of my belief that this case was correctly decided by the Court of Appeals and that State v. Lewis, 39 Or App 151 , 591 P2d 414 (1979), as cited by the Court of Appeals in support of its opinion in this case, was also correctly decided and should not have been "disapproved” by the majority.
