## Opinion text

*30 OPINION ON APPELLANT’S MOTION FOR REHEARING
W.C. DAVIS, Judge.
On original submission we affirmed appellant’s conviction, holding that appellant’s “withdrawal” from his negotiated plea in the trial court, his subsequent trial and conviction by a jury, and the imposition by the trial judge of a sentence more severe than that originally imposed under the terms of the plea bargain, does not implicate North Carolina v. Pearce, 395 U.S. 711 , 89 S.Ct. 2072 , 23 L.Ed.2d 656 (1969). After reconsideration of appellant’s contention, we abide by our original opinion. The motion for rehearing is denied.
TEAGUE, J., dissents.
