Alexander DURFEY, Appellant, v. The STATE of Nevada, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This appeal was initiated by the filing of a pro se notice of appeal. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Douglas W. Herndon, Judge.
Appellant filed a notice of appeal on December 12, 2017. The notice of appeal does not specifically identify any judgments of the district court.

To the extent appellant appeals from the October 20, 2017, order for revocation of probation and amended judgment of conviction, the appeal is untimely. “[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, we conclude that we Lack jurisdiction to consider this appeal, and we
ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
