IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

JOSEPH RAMON PEREZ, No. 69575 Appellant, vs. THE STATE OF NEVADA, FILED Respondent.

FEB 1 2 2016 E K. LINDEMAN SUBSEIWYI

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL This appeal was initiated by the filing of a pro se appeal.

Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Valerie Adair, Judge.

Our review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. The notice of appeal states that appellant "appeals the Judgement of conviction entered ...on or about the 30 day of December, 2015." No order or final judgment was entered on December 30, 2015. To the extent appellant appeals from the judgment of conviction entered on October 9, 2015, the notice of appeal is untimely filed. NRAP 4(b); NRS 34,575(1); NRAP 26(a); NRAP 26(c). 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), we conclude that we lack jurisdiction to consider this appeal, and we ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
