Description
Timmy Joe Sargent was tried by jury and convicted of driving under the influence of intoxicants (DUI), his third offense within five years. The trial court imposed a $1,000 fine and a three month jail sentence.

We conclude that the prior convictions were improperly relied upon to enhance punishment and reverse.
