ON SECOND MOTION FOR REHEARING
REAVLEY, Justice.
Gulf Oil Corporation points out that it sought by its pleadings indemnity and contribution against other defendants, and these claims should not be foreclosed by our judgment upon a record containing only the evidence produced by plaintiff in her case-in-chief. The motion for rehearing by Gulf is partially granted but otherwise overruled. The motion for rehearing by Flournoy Drilling Company in support of Gulf’s motion is overruled. The judgment of November 13, 1974, is set aside. The judgments of the trial court and the Court of Civil Appeals are reversed and the cause is remanded to the trial court for further proceedings consistent with the opinion of this Court, including repleading by Gulf to designate parties against which it seeks recovery, elimination of any original defendant not retained by the im-pleader of a defendant, and for trial. Additional motions for rehearing may be filed by any party to complain of this judgment but not the prior holding of the Court.
