Appeal From Union County

Lee S. Alford, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No.  2007-UP-233

Submitted May 1, 2007 – Filed May 15, 2007

APPEAL DISMISSED

Assistant Appellate Defender Robert M. Dudek, Office of Appellate Defense, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General, Donald J. Zelenka, Office of the Attorney General, of Columbia; and Solicitor Thomas E. Pope, of York, for Respondent. 

PER CURIAM:  Tashoca Dunn appeals her conviction of voluntary manslaughter and sentence of twenty years imprisonment.  Dunn argues the trial court erred in excluding the evidence of decedent’s prior 1999 charge of armed robbery. Dunn also filed a separate pro se brief raising numerous arguments. After a thorough review of the record, counsel’s brief, and Dunn’s pro se 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] Dunn’s appeal and grant counsel’s motion to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.

STILWELL, SHORT, and WILLIAMS JJ., concur.

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