                       ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

              This is a pro se appeal from a judgment of conviction. Eighth
Judicial District Court, Clark County; Tierra Danielle Jones, Judge.
              This court's review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect.
Specifically, the district court entered the judgment of conviction on
December 8, 2021. Appellant did not file the notice of appeal, however, until
February 18, 2022, well after the expiration of the 30-day appeal period.
See NRAP 4(b); 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, we conclude that we lack jurisdiction to consider this
appeal, and we
              ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
