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. Rodarte v. State, 860 S.W.2d 108 (Tex. Crim. App. 1993); Shute v. State, 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. Olivo v. State, 918 S.W.2d 519, 523 (Tex. Crim. App. 1996).

The appeals are dismissed.
