IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

MARLIN THOMPSON. No. 75737 Appellant, vs. 14F1

THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal from a district court order denying a petition for modification of sentence. Second Judicial District Court, Washoe County; Connie J. Steinheimer, Judge. This court's preliminary review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the district court entered the order denying the petition on March 23, 2018. Appellant did not file the notice of appeal, however, until April 25, 2018, two days 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 u. 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.
