Legal Question in Criminal Law in Iowa

Can a judge dismiss a PCR on his own motion without

appointing counsel to first review the record, and then ask if the person

is an inmate and indigent under Iowa Code Section(s) 815.9 and 815.10 how

can he preserve his right to get counsel appointed to protect his Post

Conviction Relief from being dismissed by a judge that is bias and prejudice

by dismissing every one motion the applicant files. Thank you
