Anthony BUTLER, 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; Valerie Adair, Judge.
Appellant filed a notice of appeal on July 9, 2018. The notice of appeal fails to designate the specific order or judgment being challenged on appeal. See NRAP 3(c)(1)(B). To the extent that appellant appeals from the judgment of conviction entered on September 24, 2012, the notice of appeal was untimely filed. See NRAP 4(b)(1)(A) (prescribing a 30-day appeal period from the entry of judgment of conviction). To the extent that appellant appeals from the motion to modify a sentence, no decision had been made on the motion when appellant filed his appeal. See NRS 177.015(3) (stating that a defendant only may appeal from a final judgment or verdict). Accordingly, we conclude that we lack jurisdiction, and we
ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
