Decision of the Court
MEMORANDUM DECISION
Presiding Judge Maria Elena Cruz, Judge Angela K. Paton, and Judge Peter
B. Swann delivered the decision of the Court.
PER CURIAM:
¶1 Petitioner Ammed Hassan seeks review of the superior
court’s order denying his petition for post-conviction relief. This is
petitioner’s second successive petition.
¶2 Absent an abuse of discretion or error of law, this court will
not disturb a superior court’s ruling on a petition for post-conviction relief.
State v. Gutierrez, 229 Ariz. 573, 577, ¶ 19 (2012). It is petitioner’s burden to
show that the superior court abused its discretion by denying the petition
for post-conviction relief. See State v. Poblete, 227 Ariz. 537, 538, ¶ 1 (App.
2011) (petitioner has burden of establishing abuse of discretion on review).
¶3 We have reviewed the record in this matter, the superior
court’s order denying the petition for post-conviction relief, and the petition
for review. We find that petitioner has not established an abuse of
discretion.
¶4 We grant review and deny relief.
