## Opinion text

OPINION ON THE STATE’S MOTION FOR REHEARING
DALLY, Judge.
The majority of the Court now adopts for its opinion the dissenting opinion on original submission. The “straw man” argument presented, the assumptions made, and the discussions concerning the voluntar-iness of the plea, in the opinion concurring in part and dissenting in part, are wholly irrelevant. The record reflects that the appellant was carefully admonished concerning his guilty plea and that his constitutional rights were fully protected, but in view of the opinion concurring in part and dissenting in part a portion of the record will be incorporated in an appendix to this opinion. This portion of the record shows the appellant was fully and completely admonished and that he was accorded due process.
The State’s Motion for Rehearing is granted; the judgment is affirmed.
