- noting the Court’s long-standing precedent holding that the double-jeopardy provisions of both constitutions provide “substantially identical protections”

## Opinion text

PRICE, Judge,
concurring.
I concur with the denial of applicant’s motion for rehearing. According to our “hand down” sheet, this Court granted all six of applicant’s grounds for review. However, a review of our voting record indicates that a majority of this Court agreed to grant review on only the two grounds addressed in the opinion; the implication in the “hand down” sheet to the contrary was due to a clerical error. Therefore, we need not address applicant’s other grounds for review.
