MEMORANDUM DECISION Presiding Judge Jennifer M. Perkins, Judge James B. Morse Jr., and Judge Michael J. Brown delivered the decision of the Court.

STATE v. SELF Decision of the Court PER CURIAM: ¶1 Petitioner Michael L. Self seeks review of the superior court’s order denying his petition for post-conviction relief. This is petitioner’s eighth 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, 278 P.3d 1276, 1280 (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, ¶ 1, 260 P.3d 1102, 1103 (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 denying the petition for post-conviction relief, and the petition for review. We find that petitioner has not established an abuse of discretion.

¶4 We grant review and deny relief.
