OPINION

DAVIE L. WILSON, Justice.

A jury found appellant Casimir Bernard Roberts guilty of possession with intent to deliver cocaine weighing one gram or more, but less than four grams. See Tex. Health & Safety Code Ann. § 481.112(c) (Vernon Supp.2000). Appellant pleaded true to two prior convictions for possession of cocaine. The trial court assessed punishment at 35-years imprisonment. In two points of error, appellant contends the trial court improperly admitted evidence of prior uncharged offenses, and the trial court erred in overruling his motion for mistrial. We reverse.
