MEMORANDUM DECISION

Presiding Judge Kenton D. Jones delivered the decision of the Court, in which Judge Randall M. Howe and Judge Donn Kessler joined.

JONES, Judge:

¶1 Petitioner Frank Silva Roque petitions this court for review from the summary dismissal of his notice of post-conviction relief filed August 15, 2014. Roque argues the Arizona Supreme Court erred when it addressed a disclosure issue in his case on direct appeal in 2006. See State v. Roque, 213 Ariz. 193, 209-11, ¶¶ 41, 48-50, 52 (2006). Roque asks this court to correct the supreme court's opinion and order a new trial.

¶2 We deny relief because Roque has failed to present a cognizable claim pursuant to Arizona Rule of Criminal Procedure 32.1 or otherwise present a colorable claim for relief. This Court has no authority to overrule, modify, or disregard a decision of the Arizona Supreme Court. Myers v. Reeb, 190 Ariz. 341, 342 (App. 1997) ("Whether prior decisions of the Arizona Supreme Court are to be disaffirmed is a question for that court.") (quoting City of Phx. v. Leroy's Liquors, Inc., 177 Ariz. 375, 378 (App. 1993)).

¶3 We grant review but deny relief.
