Webster (Darnell) v. State

Opinion

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

DARNELL WEBSTER, No. 85472 Appellant,

vs.

THE STATE OF NEVADA, FILE Respondent.

OCT Z4 2021

H A. BF:OWN UPREME COURT

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL BY CLERK

DEP

This is a pro se notice of appeal from a district court order denying a postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Eighth

Judicial District Court, Clark County; Tierra Danielle Jones, Judge.

This court's review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect.

Specifically, the district court entered its order denying appellant's petition on June 27, 2022. The district court served notice of entry of that order on appellant on June 29, 2022. Appellant did not file the notice of appeal, however, until October 4, 2022, well after the expiration of the 30-day appeal period prescribed by NRS 34.575. See NRAP 4(b); Lozada v. State,

110 Nev. 349, 352, 871 P.2d 944, 946 (1994) (explaining that an untimely notice of appeal fails to vest jurisdiction in this court). Accordingly, this court

ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.'
