San Antonio, Texas

No. 04-22-00684-CR
Angel Jonathan KOENIGSTEIN,
Appellant
v.
The STATE of Texas,
Appellee
From the 144th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2020CR6833
Honorable Michael E. Mery, Judge Presiding
ORDER
On October 19, 2022, we issued an order noting that the clerk’s record appears to show
that appellant did not timely file his notice of appeal or his motion for extension of time to file
the notice of appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.2, 26.3. Our order also noted that the clerk’s record
does not contain a certification showing appellant has the right to appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P.
25.2. We therefore ordered appellant to show cause in writing by November 18, 2022 why this
appeal should not be dismissed, either for want of jurisdiction or pursuant to Texas Rule of
Appellate Procedure 25.2. See Olivo v. State, 918 S.W.2d 519, 522 (Tex. Crim. App. 1996); TEX.
R. APP. P. 25.2(d).
On November 18, 2022, appellant’s newly appointed counsel filed a motion requesting an
extension of time to file the response. Counsel requested the extension in order to communicate
with appellant regarding “the factual and legal basis for the Notice of Appeal and Motion for
Leave to File Late Notice of Appeal.” We granted the motion, and extended appellant’s deadline
to file the response until December 19, 2022. On December 19, 2022, appellant’s counsel again
requested an extension of time to file the response required by our October 19, 2022 order. After
consideration, we GRANT the motion and ORDER appellant to file his response by February
3, 2023. No further extensions of time will be granted.
