ONION, Presiding Judge
(concurring in part and dissenting in part).
I agree that the case must be remanded to the trial court for a new hearing on punishment, but dissent for the same reason as stated in my opinion (Concurring in Part and Dissenting in Part) in Bullard v. State, 533 S.W.2d 812 (Tex.Cr.App., Delivered March 3, 1976). Upon remand the court should be restricted to assessing punishment for the primary offense alone. Elizalde v. State, 507 S.W.2d 749 (Tex.Cr.App.1974), should not have been overruled in Bullard v. State, supra.
