OPINION
MILLER, Judge.Applicant submitted this pro se application for writ of habeas corpus to this Court pursuant to Art. 11.07, V.A.C.C.P. Applicant pled guilty to the offenses of aggravated sexual assault, burglary of a habitation, and aggravated robbery. The trial judge sentenced applicant, as a repeat offender, to 50 years confinement in the Texas Department of Corrections1 for each offense, the sentences for burglary of a habitation and aggravated robbery to run concurrently with the sentence for aggravated sexual assault.
Applicant claims his convictions for burglary of a habitation and aggravated robbery are illegal because obtained from a fundamentally defective indictment.2 Specifically, applicant argues these two offenses were misjoined in the indictment in violation of Penal Code § 3.01, which allowed for the joinder in a single indictment of the repeated commission of any one property offense (Title 7 offenses in the Penal Code).3 In cause number CR-555-87-C, applicant was indicted in Count I for burglary of a habitation, alleged to have been committed on March 23, 1987, accompanied by an enhancement paragraph alleging applicant had been previously convicted of burglary of a habitation committed on August 22, 1983. In Count II, the indictment alleges applicant committed aggravated robbery on March 23, 1987, and also includes the same enhancement paragraph. *808Applicant was also indicted in cause number CR-549-87-C for aggravated sexual assault, likewise alleging a commission date of March 23, 1987, and the same enhancement paragraph. Applicant pled guilty to, and was convicted of, all three offenses.
In its response to applicant’s mis-joinder claim, the State cites this Court’s decisions in Holcomb v. State, 745 S.W.2d 903 (Tex.Cr.App.1988); Fortune v. State, 745 S.W.2d 364 (Tex.Cr.App.1988); and Jordan v. State, 552 S.W.2d 478 (Tex.Cr.App.1977), and concedes applicant’s contention has merit. Under the law in effect when these offenses were committed, it is well-settled that an indictment may contain more than one count charging the same offense, but the indictment may not charge more than one offense. See Ex parte Broyles, 759 S.W.2d 674, 675 (Tex.Cr.App. 1988), citing Drake v. State, 686 S.W.2d 935 (Tex.Cr.App.1985). Although burglary of a habitation and aggravated robbery are both “offenses against property” (or Title 7 offenses), each is a distinct statutory offense, and thus, these offenses may not be joined in the same indictment. When more than one offense is alleged in the same indictment, whether or not the offenses arose out of the same or different transactions, misjoinder occurs and constitutes fundamental error, and the State may not obtain more than one conviction on that indictment. See Holcomb, 745 S.W.2d at 908. Thus, applicant’s contention that he was improperly convicted of both offenses in cause number CR-555-87-C is meritorious.
The issue of the appropriate relief to be granted applicant remains. Several situations have been presented to this Court, and, in the concurring opinion in Callins v. State, 780 S.W.2d 176, 197 (Tex.Cr.App.1986), the five predominant methods used by this Court in determining which conviction to uphold and which to dismiss were noted:
1 — The most popular method is to choose the offense that the defendant was convicted of first. Ex parte Ellison, 699 S.W.2d 218 (Tex.Cr.App.1985); Ex parte Siller, 686 S.W.2d 617 (Tex.Cr.App.1985); Ex parte Prince, 549 S.W.2d 753 (Tex.Cr.App.1977); Ex parte Easley, 490 S.W.2d 570 (Tex.Cr.App.1972).[4]
2 — At other times this Court has affirmed the conviction that had the lowest number on the charging instrument. Ex parte Adams, 541 S.W.2d 440 (Tex.Cr.App.1976); Price v. State, 475 S.W.2d 742 (Tex.Cr.App.1972).
3 — In Beaupre v. State, 526 S.W.2d 811 (Tex.Cr.App.1975), cert. den. 423 U.S. 1037, 96 S.Ct. 573, 46 L.Ed.2d 412 (1975), this Court chose the offense that was alleged first in the indictment.
4 — In Jones v. State, 482 S.W.2d 194 (Tex.Cr.App.1972), cert. den. 410 U.S. 932, 93 S.Ct. 1377, 35 L.Ed.2d 594 (1973), this Court chose the conviction for possession of heroin over the conviction for possession of marijuana because there was “more proof” for possession of heroin.
5 — In Barron v. State, 568 S.W.2d 362 (Tex.Cr.App.1978), no reason was offered to justify affirming a conviction for murder and dismissing a conviction for robbery by assault.
Callins, 780 S.W.2d at 197 (Miller, J., concurring). In this concurring opinion it was noted that a multiplicity of tests arose because no one test works well in all situations. Id. The concurring opinion proposed utilizing one rule, to-wit: choosing the conviction for the most serious offense.5
In the cause sub judice, applicant prays that each of his convictions be vacated. According to our case law, however, that relief is inappropriate and one of the con*809victions for the misjoined offenses will be upheld. We find that this case is an appropriate case for adopting and applying the “most serious offense” test in determining which conviction to uphold. As stated in Callins, supra, the reasons for doing so include:
“First, it will be applicable to all cases where there is misjoinder of offenses.
Second, it does not attempt to make arbitrary distinctions based on which allegation or conviction preceded the others. The outcome of a case will not depend on the coincidence of the order of offenses in an indictment or jury charge.
Third, it assumes that if the State had been made to elect an offense, it would have chosen the most serious one. This will be true in a majority of the cases. It cannot be said that the State would usually pick the first offense.
Last, it is the most consistent with the objective of the Penal Code ‘to insure the public safety through: (A) the deterrent influence of the penalties hereinafter provided.’ V.T.C.A. Penal Code, sec. 1.02.”
We pause to note that Judge Campbell’s concurring and dissenting opinion in this cause wholly fails to rebut these reasons for adopting this test. In fact, the concurring and dissenting opinion would have us maintain the condemned arbitrariness of selecting the first conviction in the indictment or the first conviction in the judgment.
In the case at bar, applicant was convicted of aggravated robbery and burglary of a habitation in cause number CR-55&-87-C and aggravated sexual assault in cause number CR-549-87-C. In this latter cause number, applicant filed a motion with the trial judge requesting the court to take into consideration three unadjudicated offenses when assessing his punishment. The motion reflects that in three separate causes applicant had been charged with committing three additional burglary of a habitation offenses during the months of January and April of 1987.
In Callins, the concurring opinion advised considering the sentence imposed and other relevant factors when making the determination as to which offense was the most serious, so we again review the facts in this record. Applicant was charged with burglary of a habitation in count one of the indictment, which offense is a first degree felony. V.T.C.A. Penal Code § 30.02(a) and (d)(1). Because applicant was charged and found guilty as a repeat offender for this offense, he was subject to a penalty of confinement in prison for life or for any term of not more than 99 years or less than 15 years and a $10,-000 fine. V.T.C.A. Penal Code § 12.42(c). Applicant was assessed a 50 year prison term for this conviction. In count two of the indictment, applicant was charged with and convicted of aggravated robbery, also a first degree felony. V.T.C.A. Penal Code § 29.03(a) and (b). Applicant was again sentenced as a repeat offender pursuant to the provisions of § 12.42(c), subjecting him to the same sentencing possibilities as his conviction for burglary of a habitation. Applicant was again assessed a 50 year prison term. No deadly weapon finding was entered in the judgment for either count. Thus, on the surface these two convictions appear to be equally “serious.”
The rules on parole eligibility and good conduct time break this apparent “seriousness tie” between the offenses. Under Art. 42.18, § 8(b), V.A.C.C.P., a prisoner convicted of aggravated robbery, as well as other enumerated offenses, is not eligible for release on parole until his actual calendar time served, without consideration of good conduct time, equals one-fourth of the maximum sentence or 15 calendar years. These same restrictions are not placed upon the parole eligibility of prisoners convicted of burglary of a habitation. See Art. 42.18, § 8(b), and Art. 42.12, § 3g(a)(l).6 Thus, when this relevant factor is considered, it is clear that aggravated robbery is the more serious of *810the two offenses for which applicant was convicted in cause number CR-555-87-C. Thus, the conviction for aggravated robbery is affirmed, and the conviction for burglary of a habitation is vacated. Since the trial judge assessed a separate sentence for each offense, this cause need not be remanded to the trial court for a reassessment of punishment, and the 50 year sentence assessed on the aggravated robbery conviction, to run concurrently with the sentence in cause number CR-549-87C, is also sustained. Compare Ex parte Broyles, 759 S.W.2d 674 (where trial judge assessed single prison term of 40 years for convictions for aggravated robbery and aggravated kidnapping; cause remanded to trial court for new punishment hearing).
It is so ordered.7
WHITE, J., concurs in the result.. Now called the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Institutional Division.
. This issue is cognizable by way of a writ of habeas corpus. Ex parte Elliott, 746 S.W.2d 762 (Tex.Cr. App. 1988).
.The offenses in question were alleged to have been committed on March 23, 1987. Thus, the amendment to Penal Code § 3.01, effective September 1, 1987, is inapplicable to this cause.
. Note the more recent decisions utilizing this same determination: Holcomb, 745 S.W.2d 903, and Ex parte Broyles, 759 S.W.2d 674.
. In Callins, the appellant had been convicted of both capital murder and aggravated robbery. The majority opinion in that case affirmed the capital murder conviction, which was obtained first according to the judgment, and vacated the conviction for aggravated robbery. Under the "most serious offense" test, the capital murder conviction also would have been the conviction upheld.
. Article 42.18, § 8, (b) provides that "[a]U other prisoners (i.e. those not convicted of an Art. 42.12, § 3g offense) shall be eligible for release on parole when their calendar time served plus good conduct time equals one-fourth of the maximum sentence imposed or 15 years, whichever is less."
. Applicant also contends in his writ application that he received ineffective assistance of counsel, thus rendering his guilty plea involuntary. We found no merit in this contention and hence only filed and set this writ on the misjoinder issue.
