Popis: The Doppler-shift attenuation method was applied to measure the lifetime of the 4.03 MeV state in $^{19}\mathrm{Ne}$. By utilizing a $^{3}\mathrm{He}$-implanted Au foil as a target, the state was populated using the $^{20}\mathrm{Ne}$($^{3}\mathrm{He}$, $\ensuremath{\alpha}$)$^{19}\mathrm{Ne}$ reaction in inverse kinematics at a $^{20}\mathrm{Ne}$ beam energy of 34 MeV. De-excitation \ensuremath{\gamma} rays were detected in coincidence with \ensuremath{\alpha} particles. At the 1\ensuremath{\sigma} level, the lifetime was determined to be ${11}_{\ensuremath{-}3}^{+4}$ fs and at the 95.45% confidence level the lifetime is ${11}_{\ensuremath{-}7}^{+8}$ fs.
