James B. Morse Jr. delivered the decision of the Court.
STATE v. DENG
Decision of the Court
PER CURIAM:
¶1 Petitioner Tony Deng seeks review of the superior court’s
order denying his petition for post-conviction relief. This is petitioner’s
latest 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, 278 P.3d 1276, 1280 (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, ¶ 1, 260 P.3d 1102, 1103 (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. The petitioner has failed to show an abuse of
discretion.
¶4 For the foregoing reasons, this court grants review but
denies relief.
