CADENA, Chief Justice,
concurring.
I agree that a judge cannot set aside an order granting a new trial and, by such action, reinstate the judgment which he has *589previously set aside. No statute or rule authorizes such action. Rule 329b(c) does no more than provide that if there is no action on a motion for new trial within the time specified, the motion will be considered overruled by operation of law. In this case the motion for new trial was determined within the 75-day period. It was granted. The 75-day provision of the rule is clearly inapplicable and irrelevant.
CANTU, J., joins in this concurring opinion.
