Dissenting Opinion
Staton, P.J.
I dissent. Hamilton entered his plea of guilty on February 1. 1974. IC 1971. 35-4.1-1-3 which requires the *610trial court to address the defendant became effective on. July 26,1973. Hamilton was not addressed by the trial court. This is a plain error; therefore, Hamilton should be granted a new trial. Kleinrichert v. State (1973), 260 Ind. 537, 297 N.E.2d 822; Goode v. State (1974), 160 Ind. App. 360, 312 N.E.2d 109. Also see Bennett v. State (1976), 168 Ind. App. 680, 345 N.E.2d 254 (concurring opinion) ; Norfrey v. State (1976), 171 Ind.
