STATE v. RAMIREZ
Decision of the Court
PER CURIAM:
¶1 Jose Jesus Ramirez petitions for review of the summary
dismissal of his petition for post-conviction relief. We have considered the
petition for review and, for the reasons stated, grant review but deny relief.
¶2 Following a jury trial, Ramirez was convicted of three counts
of aggravated driving under the influence and sentenced to concurrent ten-
year prison terms. This court affirmed the convictions and sentences on
appeal. State v. Ramirez, 1 CA-CR 11-0840, 2012 WL 2793111 (Ariz. App.
July 10, 2012) (mem. decision).
¶3 Ramirez commenced a timely proceeding for post-conviction
relief. After appointed counsel filed a notice that he was unable to identify
a colorable claim, Ramirez filed a pro se petition for post-conviction relief
alleging a variety of claims. The superior court summarily dismissed the
petition, finding a majority of the claims Ramirez raised were procedurally
precluded and the remainder each failed to state a colorable claim for relief.
This petition for review followed.
¶4 We review the summary dismissal of a petition for post-
conviction relief for abuse of discretion. State v. Bennett, 213 Ariz. 562, 566,
¶ 17 (2006). Ramirez has failed to show in his petition for review that the
superior court abused its discretion in finding the majority of his claims for
relief were precluded and the remainder failed to state a colorable claim.
Thus, the court did not err in summarily dismissing the petition. Ariz. R.
Crim. P. 32.6(c).
¶5 Accordingly, although we grant review, we deny relief.
