In determining whether an application is timely under AS 12.73.020(11), there is a presumption of (1) timeliness if the application is filed before three years after the date of conviction; this presumption may be rebutted if the court finds that the application is based solely upon information used in a previously denied application; and (2) untimeliness if the application is filed three years or more after conviction; this presumption may be rebutted if the court finds good cause for filing three years or more after conviction.
