M E M O R A N D U M O P I N I O N

Ricky Currie seeks to appeal from a judgment of conviction for aggravated robbery. Sentence was imposed on August 9, 2005. There was no motion for new trial. The deadline for perfecting appeal was therefore September 8. Tex. R. App. P. 26.2(a)(1). Notice of appeal was filed on October 12, 2005. Under the circumstances, we lack jurisdiction to dispose of the purported appeal in any manner other than by dismissing it for want of jurisdiction. See Slaton v. State, 981 S.W.2d 208 (Tex. Crim. App. 1998); Olivo v. State, 918 S.W.2d 519, 522-23 (Tex. Crim. App. 1996).

The appeal is dismissed.
