Opinion:
OPINION ON STATE'S PETITIONS FOR DISCRETIONARY REVIEW
PER CURIAM.
Appellant was convicted by a jury of aggravated kidnapping and sentenced to forty years imprisonment. The Court of Appeals affirmed appellant's conviction, but reversed the judgment as to punishment. Teer v. State, 895 S.W.2d 845 (Tex.App.— Waco 1995). The McLennan County District Attorney and the State Prosecuting Attorney (collectively, "the State") filed petitions for discretionary review which we granted.
Upon careful consideration of the grounds for review and the briefs, we conclude that the State's petitions were improvidently granted. Accordingly, the State's petitions for discretionary review are dismissed.
