AFFIRMED.



Per Curiam.



Thomas Myron Jackson, 418 East Rosser Avenue, Suite 320, Bismarck, N.D. 58501, for petitioner and appellant.

Tibor v. State

No. 20110313



Per Curiam.

[¶1]	Art Tibor appealed from a district court order dismissing his application for post-conviction relief.  In 2006, Tibor was convicted of gross sexual imposition, and this Court affirmed in 
State v. Tibor
, 2007 ND 146, 738 N.W.2d 492.  Tibor subsequently filed a motion for new trial, which the district court denied.  This Court summarily affirmed in 
State v. Tibor
, 2010 ND 71, 789 N.W.2d 731.  On appeal, Tibor argues that the district court erred when it proceeded with a hearing on the State’s motion to dismiss his post-conviction relief application without Tibor having an opportunity to be present and participate in the hearing and without having given notice.

[¶2]	We affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(4) and (6).
