STATE v. VASQUEZ
Decision of the Court

MEMORANDUM DECISION

Presiding Judge Michael S. Catlett, Judge Jennifer M. Perkins, and Judge
Angela K. Paton delivered the following decision.

PER CURIAM:

¶1 Petitioner Juan Rubio Vasquez 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 Vasquez’s fifth petition.

¶2 We will not disturb a superior court’s ruling on a petition for
post-conviction relief absent an abuse of discretion or legal error. See State
v. Gutierrez, 229 Ariz. 573, 577, ¶ 19 (2012). Vasquez 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 We have reviewed the record in this matter, the superior
court’s order denying the petition for post-conviction relief, and the petition
for review. The petitioner has not established error.

¶4 We grant review but deny relief.
