The opinion

ON appellant’s motion for rehearing

BELCHER, Judge.

Appellant complains of our failure to discuss his contention that his arrest at his mother’s home was illegal.

The officers were not trespassers because they had on invitation legally entered the house. Their testimony as to the facts observed and discovered while in the house was admissible in evidence. The invitation to enter the house makes it unnecessary to determine the legality of the arrest.

We have re-examined the record in the light of appellant’s motion and his original brief.

Remaining convinced that we properly disposed of this cause originally, appellant’s motion for rehearing is overruled.

Opinion approved by the Court.
