APPEAL DISMISSED

Assistant Appellate Defender Aileen P. Clare, of Columbia,
for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney
General John W. McIntosh and Assistant Deputy Attorney General Charles H. Richardson,
all of Columbia; and Solicitor Donald V. Myers, of Lexington, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Senikka Strom was convicted of assault and battery of a
high and aggravated nature.  She was sentenced to six years, suspended upon
the service of three years, plus two years probation.  Strom’s appellate counsel
filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). 
Counsel additionally submitted a petition to be relieved from representation,
asserting there are no directly appealable issues of arguable merit.  Strom
did not file a pro se response with the Court.

After a review of the record pursuant to Anders and State
v. Williams, 305 S.C. 116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991), we dismiss the appeal
and grant counsel’s petition to be relieved.
