Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Polk County, Paul D. Scott, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Bower, C.J., and Greer and Chicchelly, JJ. Opinion by Chicchelly, J. (3 pages)
Deonte Williams appeals the order granting summary dismissal of his application for postconviction relief. OPINION HOLDS: Because the face of Williams’s application shows it was untimely, the court did not err in granting summary dismissal. Because Williams did not challenge and the postconviction court did not rule on the constitutionality of Iowa Code section 822.3 (2022), error is not preserved and we do not address the claim on appeal.
