Jason Francis Pacyna, Yuma
Petitioner
                             STATE v. PACYNA
                            Decision of the Court

                       MEMORANDUM DECISION

Presiding Judge Samuel A. Thumma, Judge Cynthia J. Bailey, and Vice
Chief Judge David B. Gass delivered the following decision.

PER CURIAM:

¶1            Petitioner Jason Francis Pacyna seeks review of the superior
court’s order denying his petition for post-conviction relief, filed pursuant
to Arizona Rule of Criminal Procedure 32.1. This is Pacyna’s first petition.

¶2             Absent an abuse of discretion or legal error, this court will not
disturb a superior court’s ruling on a petition for post-conviction relief. See
State v. Gutierrez, 229 Ariz. 573, 577 ¶ 19 (2012). Petitioner has the burden to
show that the superior court erred in denying the petition for post-
conviction relief. See State v. Poblete, 227 Ariz. 537, 538 ¶ 1 (App. 2011).

¶3            This court has reviewed the record in this matter, the order
denying the petition for post-conviction relief and the petition for review.
This court finds the petitioner has not established error.

¶4            This court grants review but denies relief.
