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 Antonio Marquez Aguilar 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, the state’s
response, the reply to response, 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.
