Parker Counsel for Respondent The Law Office of Stephen L. Crawford, P.L.L.C., Phoenix By Stephen L. Crawford Counsel for Petitioner STATE v. CROCKETT Decision of the Court MEMORANDUM DECISION Presiding Judge D. Steven Williams, Judge David B. Gass, and Judge James B. Morse Jr. delivered the decision of the Court. PER CURIUM: ¶1 Petitioner Charles Taylor Crockett 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. AMY M. WOOD • Clerk of the Court FILED: AA 2
