HUGO ALFONSO LOPEZ-TRUJILLO, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is an appeal of a judgment of conviction that is subject to the provisions of this court's fast track under NRAP 3C. Sixth Judicial District Court, Humboldt County; Robert E. Estes, Judge.
Initial review of this appeal revealed a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, it appeared that the notice of appeal was untimely filed. Accordingly, this court issued an order directing appellant to show cause why this appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. In response to this court's order to show cause, appellant concedes that the notice of appeal was untimely filed. “[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). Appellant has not demonstrated that he timely filed the notice of appeal. Nor has appellant demonstrated that an untimely appeal was excused under the procedure outlined in NRAP 4(c). Accordingly, this court lacks jurisdiction and
ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
