Opinion

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

MICHAEL RONALD BROOKS, Appellant, No. 83542 FILED vs. OCT 28 2132 THE STATE OF NEVADA, ELIZABETH A. BROWN Respondent. CLERK OF SUPREME COURT BY Ç. DEPLflY CLE

MICHAEL RONALD BROOKS, No. 83608 • Appellant, vs. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.

ORDER DISMISSING APPEALS

These are pro se appeals from judgments of conviction. This court's review of these appeals reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the district court entered the judgments of conviction on July 16, 2021. Appellant did not file the notices of appeal, however, until September 21, 2021, well after the expiration of the 30-day appeal period prescribed by NRAP 4(b). Because an untimely notice of appeal fails to vest jurisdiction in this court, Lozada v. State, 110 Nev. 349, 352, 871 P.2d 944, 946 (1994), this court lacks jurisdiction to consider the appeals, and ORDERS these appeals DISMISSED.'
