Decision of the Court

MEMORANDUM DECISION

Judge Paul J. McMurdie delivered the decision of the Court, in which Presiding Judge Diane M. Johnsen and Judge Jon W. Thompson joined.

M c M U R D I E, Judge:

¶1 Petitioner Braulio Trejo-Martin petitions this court for review of the summary dismissal of his second petition for post-conviction relief. Trejo-Martin pled guilty to molestation of a child and two counts of attempted molestation of a child in 2011. Trejo-Martin argues his trial counsel and his first post-conviction relief counsel were ineffective. He further argues the superior court erred when it imposed an aggravated term of imprisonment for the count of molestation of a child.

¶2 We deny relief. Trejo-Martin could have raised the sentencing issues as well as the claims of ineffective assistance of trial counsel in his first post-conviction relief proceeding. He could have raised the claims of ineffective assistance of his first post-conviction counsel in a timely second petition for post-conviction relief in 2012. Any claim a defendant could have raised in an earlier post-conviction relief proceeding is precluded. Ariz. R. Crim. P. 32.2(a). None of the exceptions under Rule 32.2(b) apply.

¶3 We grant review but deny relief.
