                                 vs.
                   THE STATE OF NEVADA,
                                                                                   FILE
                                     Respondent.                                   OCT i 4 2020
                                                                                ELIZABEIN A. BROWN

                                                                              BY
                                                                                    DEPUTY CLERK   r
                                         ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

                               This is a pro se appeal from a judgment of conviction and an
                   amended judgment of conviction. Fifth Judicial District Court, Nye County;
                   Robert W. Lane, Judge.
                               This court's review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect.
                   Specifically, the district court entered the judgment of conviction on June
                   10, 2020, and the amended judgment of conviction on August 4, 2020.
                   Appellant did not file the notice of appeal, however, until September 30,
                   2020, well after the expiration of the 30-day appeal period prescribed by
                   NRAP 4(b). "[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.
