Opinion











IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS

OF TEXAS




NO. PD-1551-09


OSCAR RENE BENAVIDEZ, Appellant


v.



THE STATE OF TEXAS




ON STATE'S PETITION FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW

FROM THE THIRTEENTH COURT OF APPEALS

HIDALGO COUNTY


Hervey, J., filed a dissenting opinion in which Keller, P.J., joined.

DISSENTING OPINION



I respectfully dissent. I agree with the Court's decision that "the court of appeals was not justified in ordering the entry of an acquittal." Maj. op. at 6. I also agree with the Court's decision that this case should be remanded to the court of appeals. Maj. op. at 9. I believe that the Court should, however, simply remand this case to the court of appeals for further proceedings not inconsistent with its opinion.



I respectfully dissent.

Hervey, J.
