OPINION ON STATE’S MOTION FOR REHEARING

2Opinion of the Court · MansfieldMansfield, Judge

Both the State and the State Prosecuting Attorney have filed motions for rehearing in this case. Believing now that we erred in our opinion on original submission, we withdraw that opinion and substitute the following.

We originally granted the State’s petition for discretionary review to determine whether the Tenth Court of Appeals1 had erred in holding that the 283rd District Court of Dallas County had violated appellant’s Sixth Amendment right to compulsory process.2 We hold now that the Tenth Court of Appeals did err.
