Syllabus

A defendant seeking post-conviction relief cannot circumvent the Uniform Postconviction Procedure Act by designating his application for post-conviction relief as a motion under a rule of criminal procedure or by filing his motion in his criminal file, rather than filing an application for post-conviction relief. Applicant for post-conviction relief is entitled to notice that his application may be summarily dismissed.
