2015 UT App 228
    Adam Scott HASLAM, Appellant, v. SALT LAKE CITY, Appellee.
    No. 20130837-CA.
    Court of Appeals of Utah.
    Sept. 11, 2015.
    Michael P. Studebaker, Ogden, for Appellant.
    Padma Veeru-Collings and Steven L. Newton, Salt Lake City, for Appellee.
    Before JUDGES J. FREDERIC VOROS JR., STEPHEN L. ROTH, and JOHN A. PEARCE.
   PER CURIAM:

{1 Adam Scott Haslam appeals the trial court's denial of his petition for post-convietion relief, He argues that he is entitled to relief because Salt Lake City failed to disclose exculpatory evidence regarding arresting officer Trooper Lisa Steed's performance and disciplinary records. However, this court has recently decided issues identical to the one Haslam raises. See Monson v. Salt Lake City, 2015 UT App 136, 351 P.3d 821; Magallanes v. South Salt Lake City, 2015 UT App 154, 353 P.3d 621.

T2 This court concluded that evidence of Trooper Steed's professional misconduct was merely impeachment evidence rather than exculpatory evidence. Accordingly, the City had no obligation to disclose the evidence prior to the entry of a guilty plea. Monson, 2015 UT App 136, ¶¶ 10-11, 351 P.3d 821; see also Magallanes, 2015 UT App 154, ¶ 7, 353 621. Additionally, the Post-Conviction Remedies Act provides no relief for newly discovered impeachment evidence. See Utah Code Ann. § 78B-9-104(1)(e)(iii) (Lex-isNexis 2012). Haslam's claims are the same as those raised in Monson and Magallanes are resolved by those decisions.

T 3 Affirmed.
