                            STATE v. SANCHEZ
                            Decision of the Court



                       MEMORANDUM DECISION

Judge James P. Beene delivered the decision of the Court, in which
Presiding Judge Samuel A. Thumma and Judge Lawrence F. Winthrop
joined.


B E E N E, Judge:

¶1           Petitioner Juan Aurelio Sanchez petitions this court for review
from the summary dismissal of his second notice of post-conviction relief.
We have considered the petition for review and, for the reasons stated,
grant review but deny relief.

¶2            A jury found Sanchez guilty of second degree murder in 2010.
The trial court sentenced him to twenty-two years’ imprisonment and this
court affirmed his conviction and sentence on direct appeal. The trial court
summarily dismissed Sanchez’s first petition for post-conviction relief in
June 2014. Sanchez did not seek review of that dismissal.

¶3             In May 2015, Sanchez filed his second notice of post-
conviction relief and argued that his first post-conviction relief counsel was
ineffective when counsel failed to provide Sanchez a copy of the minute
entry that dismissed the first post-conviction relief proceeding. Sanchez
argues this failure caused him to miss the thirty-day deadline to file a timely
pro se petition for review pursuant to Arizona Rule of Criminal Procedure
32.9(c). The trial court summarily dismissed the notice and Sanchez now
presents the same claims on review.

¶4             We deny relief. Ineffective assistance of post-conviction relief
counsel is not a valid claim under Rule 32 unless made against counsel who
provided representation in an “of-right” post-conviction relief proceeding.
State v. Pruett, 185 Ariz. 128, 131, 912 P.2d 1357, 1360 (App. 1995). Because
Sanchez’s conviction resulted from a jury trial, Sanchez’s first post-
conviction relief proceeding was not an “of-right” proceeding. Ariz. R.
Crim. P. 32.1. Further, Rule 32.1(f) allows a defendant to seek post-
conviction relief if the “failure to file a notice of post-conviction relief of-
right or notice of appeal within the prescribed time was without fault on
the defendant’s part[.]” Ariz. R. Crim. P. 32.1(f). Sanchez failed to file a
timely petition for review, not a notice of post-conviction relief of-right or a
notice of appeal. Therefore, Rule 32.1(f) affords him no relief.
