MEMORANDUM DECISION

PER CURIAM.

¶1 Petitioner State of Arizona seeks review of the superior court's order granting Carmen Brenda Lee Gonzalez's petition for post-conviction relief, filed pursuant to Arizona Rule of Criminal Procedure 32.1.

¶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 (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, 538, ¶ 1 (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, petition for review, and response. Petitioner has not established an abuse of discretion.

¶4 For the foregoing reasons, we grant review but deny relief.
