Opinion

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

MARLAND LAVEL JACKSON, No. 79741 Appellant, vs. BRIAN WILLIAMS, WARDEN, FIL Respondent. 115 17' CLE BY cePuiV75.1•JO- ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal from a judgment of conviction. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Valerie Adair, Judge. This court's preliminary review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the district court entered the judgment of conviction on September 20, 2017. Appellant did not file the notice of appeal, however, until September 27, 2019, well after the expiration of the thirty-day appeal period prescribed by NRAP 4(b). "[A]n untimely notice of appeal fails to vest jurisdiction in this court." Lozada v. State, 110 Nev. 349, 352, 871 P.2d 944, 946 (1994). Accordingly, we conclude that we lack jurisdiction to consider this appeal, and we ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
