    Paul Elliot BURESH, Petitioner and Appellant v. STATE of North Dakota, Respondent and Appellee
    No. 20160378
    Supreme Court of North Dakota.
    Filed 5/16/2017
    Scott 0. Diamond, Fargo, N.D., for petitioner and appellant; submitted on brief.
    Barbara L. Whelan, Grafton, N.D., for respondent and appellee; submitted on brief.
   Per Curiam.

[¶ 1] Paul Buresh appeals a distinct court’s order denying his application for post-conviction relief. Buresh argues he was entitled to post-conviction relief because he received ineffective assistance of counsel prior to entering his guilty plea. We summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2), concluding the district court did not err in dismissing Buresh’s application for post-conviction relief.
