IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF NEVADA

WILLIAM EDWARD FERGUSON, No. 83742 Appellant, vs. THE STATE OF NEVADA, FILE Respondent. NOV 2 if 2021 El A. aROWN CL OF PRENIE COURT • -01 cPUTY CLERK

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This is a pro se appeal from a judgment of conviction. This court's review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the district court entered the judgment of conviction on February 4, 2020. However, appellant did not file the notice of appeal until November 2, 2021, well after the expiration of the 30-day appeal period prescribed by NRAP 4(b). This court lacks jurisdiction to entertain an untimely appeal. See Lozada v. State, 110 Nev. 349, 352, 871 P.2d 944, 946 (1994) (explaining that an untimely notice of appeal fails to vest jurisdiction in this court). Accordingly, this court ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
