1DissentTeague, Judge

INTRODUCTION

This Court’s records reflect that this is the second time that this cause has been before this Court; each time on the State’s petition for discretionary review.

WHAT I WOULD HOLD

For reasons I will state, this Court should again remand this cause to the San Antonio Court of Appeals, for that court to consider only those grounds of error that Joyce Lee Lewis Garrett, hereinafter referred to as the appellant, timely presented to that court prior to its decision of Garrett v. State, 624 S.W.2d 953 (Tex.App. — San Antonio 1981), becoming final.
