2013-M-224        Susan Rae Berkovitz, petitioner, Appellant, vs. State of Minnesota, Respondent.

Appellant Susan Rae Berkovitz appeals the post-conviction court’s denial of her second petition for post-conviction relief.  Because we conclude that Berkovitz filed her petition after the expiration of the two-year limitations period, and no exception to the limitations period applies, we affirm.

Berkovitz shot and killed Shelley Joseph-Kordell and severely wounded Richard Hendrickson at the Hennepin County Government Center (“Government Center”).  Berkovitz had engaged in a long and acrimonious dispute with several members of her extended family over her father’s estate.  Joseph-Kordell was Berkovitz’s cousin and the former conservator of the estate.  Hendrickson, an attorney,

represented Joseph-Kordell in the conservatorship proceedings.  Id.
