Per Curiam.
[¶ 1] Charles Bradford Odom appealed from a district court order denying his application for post-conviction relief. On appeal, Odom argues the district court erred in denying his application because the recently amended N.D.C.C. § 19-03.1-23(1)(a)(2) is a change in substantive law that should be applied retrospectively in the interest of justice. We summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(7), see State v. Iverson , 2006 ND 193, ¶ 8, 721 N.W.2d 396 (holding a statute lessening punishment may not be applied retroactively to final convictions because it would constitute an invalid exercise by the Legislature of the executive pardoning power).
