JAYSHAWN BAILEY, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is a pro se appeal from an order denying a second post-conviction petition for writ of habeas corpus. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Michelle Leavitt, Judge.
This court's review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the district court entered the order on January 19, 2024, and served the notice of entry of order on January 22, 2024. Appellant did not file the notice of appeal, however, until September 25, 2025, well after the expiration of the 33-day appeal period prescribed by NRS 34.575, as extended by NRAP 26(c). See NRAP 4(b)(1); 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.
