David Wayne Jennings, Appellant.

Appeal From Greenville County

Charles B. Simmons, Jr., Special Circuit
Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No.  2005-UP-048

Submitted January 1, 2005 – Filed January

APPEAL DISMISSED

Acting Deputy Chief Attorney Wanda P. Hagler, 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 Robert M. Ariail, of Greenville, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  David Wayne Jennings appeals from his guilty pleas to driving
under suspension and driving under the influence.  Jennings argues his pleas
were not freely and voluntarily given pursuant to Boykin v. Alabama,
395 U.S. 238 (1965), because the trial judge did not adequately advise him of
the sentencing consequences of the charges.  Jennings’ counsel attached to the
brief a petition to be relieved as counsel, stating that she had reviewed the
record and concluded this appeal lacks merit.  After a thorough review of the
record and counsel’s brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S.
738 (1967) and State v. Williams, 305 S.C. 116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991),
we dismiss [1] Jennings’s appeal
and grant counsel’s motion to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.

HEARN, C.J., GOOLSBY and WILLIAMS, JJ., concur.

[1] We decide this case without oral argument pursuant
to Rule 215, SCACR.
