OPINION ON REMAND

WEAVER, Chief Justice.

This case involves an appeal by the State from the trial court’s grant of a new trial to appellee, Thomas Michael Lyons (“Lyons”), following his conviction of driving while intoxicated. Lyons urged three grounds in support of his motion for new trial. The trial court granted his motion without specifying upon which ground or grounds the same was granted.
