<P><SPAN STYLE="font-family: Times New Roman">	These are appeals from judgments of conviction for robbery and indecency with a child. 
Sentence was imposed in these causes on October 7, 1994.  Notice of appeal was filed over two years
late, on December 23, 1996.  Tex. R. App. P. 41(b)(1).  Without a timely filed notice of appeal, this Court
is without jurisdiction.  <EM>Rodarte v. State</EM>, 860 S.W.2d 108 (Tex. Crim. App. 1993); <EM>Shute v. State</EM>, 744
S.W.2d 96 (Tex. Crim. App. 1988). We lack jurisdiction to dispose of the purported appeals in any
manner other than by dismissing them for want of jurisdiction.  <EM>Olivo v. State</EM>, 918 S.W.2d 519, 523 (Tex.
