MICHAEL BRITON MORRIS, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF NEVADA, Respondent.


An unpublished order shall not be regarded as precedent and shall not be cited as legal authority. SCR 123.

ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

This appeal was initiated by the filing of a proper person notice of appeal. Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County; Douglas Smith, Judge.

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 order for revocation of probation and amended judgment of conviction entered on September 17, 2014, the notice of appeal is untimely filed. See NRAP 4(b)(1)(A) (prescribing a 30-day appeal period from the entry of order). Further, it does not appear from the district court docket and minute entries that the district court has entered any other appealable order. We therefore lack jurisdiction to consider this appeal, see Lozada v. State, 110 Nev. 349, 352, 871 P.2d 944, 946 (1994) ("[A]n untimely notice of appeal fails to vest jurisdiction in this court;"), and we

ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.
