This is a pro se appeal from a judgment of conviction. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Douglas Smith, Judge. This court's preliminary review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the district court entered the judgment of conviction on February 9, 2018. Appellant did not file the notice of appeal, however, until December 13, 2018, well after the expiration of the thirty- day appeal period prescribed by NRAP 4(b). 1 "[Ain 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.
