Appeal from the District Court of Burleigh County, South Central Judicial District, the Honorable James S. Hill, Judge.
AFFIRMED.
Per Curiam.
Garron Gonzalez, self-represented, P.O. Box 5521, Bismarck, ND 58506, petitioner and appellant; on brief.

Gonzalez v. State
No. 20160174
Per Curiam.
[¶1] Garron Gonzalez appeals a district court order denying his motion for an order to show cause and dismissing his application for post-conviction relief. Gonzalez applied for post-conviction relief arguing his prior post-conviction counsel was ineffective. Gonzalez argues the district court erred in summarily dismissing his application. Section 29-32.1-09(2), N.D.C.C., bars an applicant from claiming ineffective assistance of post-conviction counsel. We summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(6).
