Ex parte Williams

ONION, Presiding Judge

(concurring).

I concur in the result reached. The trial judge was correct in his findings following an evidentiary hearing that the mandatory prerequisites of Article 26.13, Vernon’s Ann.C.C.P., were not followed in the admonition given by the court when the petitioner entered a plea of guilty to the offense of burglary on December 18, 1970.

While the court advised the petitioner as to the range of punishment the court made no attempt to determine if the guilty plea was “uninfluenced by any consideration of fear, or by any persuasion, or delusive hope of pardon, prompting him to confess his guilt.” Article 26.13, supra.

I would 'disassociate myself, however, from any inference, intended or otherwise, in the majority opinion that the above quoted portion of the statute merely requires that the court inquire if the plea was “voluntary” 1 or that the required inquiry may be dispensed in whole or in part if the record shows generally that the plea is voluntary. Ex parte Battenfield, 466 S.W.2d 569 (Tex.Cr.App.1971); Ex parte Chavez, 482 S.W.2d 175 (Tex.Cr.App.1972); Crocker v. State, 485 S.W.2d 566 (Tex.Cr.App.1972); Clayton v. State, 492 S.W.2d 176 (Tex.Cr.App.1973) (concurring opinion).

For the reasons stated, I concur.

ROBERTS, J., joins in this concurrence.

. See and cf. Harris v. State, Tex.Cr.App., 500 S.W.2d 126 (this day decided), where this court held that a mere inquiry that the plea was “voluntary” was insufficient.
