IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

ESTEBAN RODRIGUEZ, JR., No. 76391 Appellant, vs. THE STATE OF NEVADA, FILED Respondent.

AUG 0 2018 EUZA:.3-77.1};. A. BROWN SCR,".EME , COURT EY DEPLOY CLERK ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL This is a proper person appeal from a judgment of conviction.

Second Judicial District Court, Washoe County; Scott N. Freeman, Judge.

This court's preliminary review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the district court entered the judgment of conviction on August 23, 2017. Appellant did not file the notice of appeal, however, until July 10, 2018, 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.
