STATE v. CAYEROS
Decision of the Court
MEMORANDUM DECISION
Presiding Judge Jennifer M. Perkins, Judge Angela K. Paton, and Judge D.
Steven Williams delivered the decision of the Court.
PER CURIAM:
¶1 Petitioner Johnny Daniel Cayeros seeks review of the superior
court’s order dismissing his petition for post-conviction relief, filed
pursuant to Arizona Rule of Criminal Procedure 32.1. This is his second
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 (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, 538, ¶ 1 (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 dismissing the petition for post-conviction and the petition.
Petitioner has not established an abuse of discretion.
¶4 For the foregoing reasons, we grant review but deny relief.
