Highlight

A trial court can summarily dispose of a post-conviction relief application for misuse of process. Process is misused when the defendant: (1) inexcusably fails to raise an issue on direct appeal and now seeks review in an application for post-conviction relief; (2) inexcusably fails to pursue an issue on appeal which was raised at the trial court; (3) inexcusably fails to raise an issue in an initial post-conviction relief application.
Although a party seeking a summary disposition bears the initial burden of showing there is no genuine issue of material fact, that burden may be shifted to the nonmoving party once the moving party points out to the district court there is an absence of evidence to support the nonmoving party's case.
