Johnson (Anthony) v. State
Opinion
IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA
ANTHONY D. JOHNSON, No. 78947 Appellant, vs. FILED THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent. JUN 2 1 2019 ELIZABETH A. BROWN CLERK OF SUPREME COURT ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL This is a pro se appeal from a district court order denying a postconviction petition for a writ of habeas corpus. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Tierra Danielle Jones, Judge.
This court's review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect.
Specifically, the district court entered its order denying appellant's petition on February 8, 2019. The district court served notice of entry of that order on appellant on February 11, 2019. Appellant did not file the notice of appeal, however, until June 3, 2019, well after the expiration of the 30-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). Accordingly, this court lacks jurisdiction to consider this appeal, and ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.'
