 ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL

 This is a pro se appeal from a divorce decree. Eighth Judicial
 District Court, Family Court Division, Clark County; Denise L. Gentile,
 Judge.
 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 30 days after service of written notice of entry of the
 judgment or order. See NRAP 4(a)(1); NRAP 26(c). The decree of divorce
 was entered on October 16, 2018, with written notice of entry served on
 October 17, 2018. A Qualified Domestic Relations Order was filed January
 9, 2019, with written notice of entry served on January 10, 2019, but the
 notice of appeal was not filed until March 26, 2019, and a second notice of
 appeal was filed on April 5, 2019, both well after the expiration of the 30-
 day time period to appeal. NRAP 4(a). An untimely notice of appeal fails to
 vest jurisdiction in this court. See Healy v. Volkswagenwerk
