                        From the 175th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas

DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION

           This is an appeal from one count of assault family violence with strangulation. Appellant

was convicted by bench trial on June 1, 2016. The written judgment states the sentence was

imposed on June 7, 2016.

           Appellant first appealed his conviction on July 5, 2016. This court affirmed the trial court’s

judgment in Cause No. 04-16-00434-CR. Robles then filed a petition for writ of mandamus in

2018, which we denied in Cause No. 04-18-00160-CR. Robles also filed a petition for writ of

habeas corpus with the trial court, which the trial court denied. We affirmed the trial court’s denial

in Cause No. 04-18-00512-CR. Robles filed another appeal in 2019, which we dismissed for want

of jurisdiction in Cause No. 04-19-00118-CR. Robles then filed another petition for writ of

mandamus, which we denied in Cause No. 04-19-00214-CR.

        On January 24, 2023, Appellant filed a new notice of appeal, pro se. On February 16, 2023,

we ordered Appellant to show cause why his appeal should not be dismissed for want of

jurisdiction. 2 Appellant responded, but he only referred to other cause numbers. He did not make

any relevant argument as to this appeal cause number, No. 04-23-00080-CR, stemming from trial

court cause number 2015CR1302. Even if we consider the current notice of appeal as an untimely

motion for rehearing from any of our previous opinions related to trial court cause number

2015CR1302, this court’s plenary power is expired. See TEX. R. APP. P. 19.1; Rodriguez v. State,

28 S.W.3d 25, 26 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 2000, no pet.). We now dismiss the purported

appeal for want of jurisdiction.

 A timely notice of appeal is necessary to invoke a court of appeals’ jurisdiction. Olivo v. State, 918 S.W.2d 519,
