Opinion

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

STEPHEN F.P. CIOLINO, No. 74128 Appellant, vs. THE STATE OF NEVADA, MED Respondent. NOV 2 9 2017 ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL This is a pro se appeal from district court orders denying a postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus and denying a "motion to vacate NRCP 60B, 4, 6." Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Kathleen E. Delaney, Judge.

Our review of this appeal reveals jurisdictional defects.

Specifically, the district court entered its order denying appellant's petition on August 7, 2017. The district court served notice of entry of that order on appellant on August 9, 2017. Appellant did not file the notice of appeal, however, until September 25, 2017, well after the expiration of the thirty- day appeal period prescribed by NRS 34.575. "[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). Further, no statute or court rule permits an appeal from an order denying a "motion to vacate NRCP 60B, 4, 6." Castillo v. State, 106 Nev. 349, 352, 792 P.2d 1133, 1135 (1990). Accordingly, we conclude that we lack jurisdiction to consider this appeal, and we ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
