Appeal From Orangeburg County

Edward B. Cottingham, Circuit Court
Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2004-UP-564

Submitted November 1, 2004 – Filed November
8, 2004

APPEAL DISMISSED

Assistant Appellate Defender Robert M. Pachak, of Columbia,
for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General
John W. McIntosh, and Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, all
of Columbia; Solicitor Walter M. Bailey, Jr., of Summerville, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Diamond Jack Harley appeals his conviction for assaulting
a police officer while resisting arrest.  Counsel for Harley attached to the
final brief a petition to be relieved as counsel.  Harley filed a separate pro
se response. 

After a review of the record as required by Anders v. California, 386
U.S. 738 (1967), and State v. Williams, 305 S.C. 116, 406 S.E.2d 357
(1991), we hold there are no directly appealable issues that are arguable on
their merits.  Accordingly, we dismiss Harley’s appeal and grant counsel’s petition
to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.

ANDERSON, STILWELL, and SHORT, JJ., concur.
