1Dissent

Judge Harold R. Banke,

dissenting.

I respectfully dissent as to Division 2 because the evidence of *842Chisholm’s guilt was so overwhelming that any error was rendered harmless beyond a reasonable doubt. Stephens v. State, 261 Ga. 467, 469 (6) (405 SE2d 483) (1991) (analyzing error in admission of similar transaction evidence for harmless error); Howard v. State, 215 Ga. App. 342, 344 (2) (450 SE2d 824) (1994) (the erroneous admission of similar transaction evidence may be harmless).

Notwithstanding the majority’s assertion to the contrary, Belt v. State, 227 Ga. App. 425 (1) (489 SE2d 157) (1997)…
