CLINTON, Judge,
concurring.
In joining the majority opinion on original submission, I was following the finding and conclusion in Guevara which, in effect, became the opinion of the Court when rehearing en banc was denied. Now the Court would overrule Guevara. As reflected by the majority and dissenting opinions in Guevara-indeed, by the opinions in this cause-there is no precedent to guide us. Thus whatever conclusion one reaches is purely a judgment call. In this minor contretemps, I am content to abide the reading of the information by the lights of the majority, but I do not understand the Court to be quietly adopting for future contests “a common sense reading and construction.”
Accordingly, I concur in the judgment of the Court.
