Adam Martin ESSEX, Appellant, v. The STATE of Nevada, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This is an appeal initiated by the filing of a pro se notice of appeal. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Eric Johnson, Judge.
On May 10, 2021, appellant filed a “Motion for a Direct Appeal.” The district court entered the judgment of conviction on August 6, 2020. Appellant did not file the notice of appeal, however, until May 10, 2021, well after the expiration of the 30-day appeal period prescribed by NRAP 4(b). The notice of appeal is also untimely filed from the order denying a motion to modify sentence entered on March 22, 2021. This court lacks jurisdiction to entertain an untimely appeal. Lozada v. State, 110 Nev. 349, 352, 871 P.2d 944, 946 (1994). Accordingly, this court
ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
