                          THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee


                       On Appeal from the 212th District Court
                              Galveston County, Texas
                          Trial Court Cause No. 09CR3167


                                        ORDER

      On June 12, 2012, this Court rendered its judgment reversing the trial court’s
judgment and ordering a new trial.

      On June 13, 2012, appellant, Matthew Alfred Friedsam, filed a motion requesting
this Court to set reasonable bail. TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC. ANN. art. 44.04(h).            In
determining the amount that is reasonable, courts consider factors such as the following:
           1.     The fact that the conviction has been overturned;1
           2.     The State’s ability, if any, to retry the appellant;2
           3.     The likelihood that the decision of the court of appeals will be overturned;3
           4.     The defendant’s work record;4
           5.     The defendant’s family and community ties;5
           6.     The defendant’s length of residency;6
           7.     The defendant’s prior criminal record;7
           8.     The defendant’s conformity with previous bond conditions;8
           9.     The existence of other outstanding bonds, if any;9
           10.    Aggravating circumstances alleged to have been involved in the charged
                  offense;10
           11.    Whether “bail [is] sufficiently high to give reasonable assurance that the
                  undertaking will be complied with”;11
           12.    Whether the amount of bail required is low enough that it is not “an
                  instrument of oppression”;12

           13.   “The nature of the offense and the circumstances under which it was
                 committed are to be considered”;13
           14.   The defendant’s ability to make bail;14 and
           15.   “The future safety of a victim of the alleged offense and the
                 community . . . .”15
           In his motion, appellant has stated that a reasonable bail would be $2,500 based on
the first three factors; however, he has failed to address the remaining factors or the status
of the sexual-assault charge asserted against him in trial court cause number 09CR3166.

           We accordingly ORDER appellant to file a supplement to his motion to set bail by
Thursday, June 21, 2012. In that motion, appellant should provide argument and
evidence relevant to the criteria, factors, and charges described in this order. See Aviles
v. State (“Aviles I”), 23 S.W.3d 74, 79–80 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 2000, pet.
ref’d) (ordering movant to supplement the motion to set bail to address such factors).
The supplemental motion should be verified to the extent that it depends on facts and
evidence not in the record, within the court’s knowledge in its official capacity, or within
the personal knowledge of the attorney signing the motion. Id. at 80 (citing TEX. R. APP.
P. 10.2). We further ORDER the State to file any response to the supplemental motion
by Wednesday, June 27, 2012.
