The opinion

ONION, Presiding Judge,

(concurring in part and dissenting in part).

I agree that the case must be remanded to the trial court for a new hearing on punishment, but cannot agree that Elizalde v. State, 507 S.W.2d 749 (Tex.Cr.App.1974), only recently • decided without dissent, should be overruled by the “current” majority.
