                                        Respondent.
                                      ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
                                 This is an appeal from an order denying a motion for new trial
                     in an action for termination of parental rights. Eighth Judicial District
                     Court, Family Court Division, Clark County; Frank P. Sullivan, Judge.
                     Appellant is proceeding in pro se.
                                 Our review of the documents submitted to this court pursuant
                     to NRAP 3(g) reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the notice of
                     appeal appears to be untimely filed under NRAP 4(a) because it appears
                     that it was filed more than thirty days after service of written notice of
                     entry of the judgment or order.      See NRAP 4(a)(1); NEAP 26(c). An
                     untimely notice of appeal fails to vest jurisdiction in this court. See Healy
                     v. Volkswagenwerk Aktiengesellschaft,    103 Nev. 329, 331, 741 P.2d 432,
                     433 (1987). Accordingly, we conclude that we lack jurisdiction, and we
                                 ORDER this appeal DISMISSED.


                                                                         J.
