Opinion

IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

KAWIKA KEOLAMAINAAUPO No. 77568 HEGENT, Appellant, ic F: vs. 1; THE STATE OF NEVADA, DEC 1 4 2018 Respondent.

CLcC , REME COURT BY S.YeaZgAare- Ii!IP, Cr CLERK ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL This is a pro se 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 5, 2014. Appellant did not file the notice of appeal, however, until November 28, 2018, well after the expiration of the 30-day appeal period prescribed by NRAP 4(b). "[Nil 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.
