ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is a pro se appeal frorn a district court order denying a
postconviction petition and supplemental petition for a writ of habeas
corpus. Ninth Judicial District Court, Douglas County; Nathan Tod Young,
Judge.
This coures review of this appeal reveals jurisdictional defects.
First, the notice of appeal was untimely filed. The district court entered its
order denying appellant's petition on August 20, 2018. The district court
served notice of entry of that order on appellant on August 21, 2018.
Appellant did not file the notice of appeal, however, until July 30, 2020, 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."
