Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney
General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott,
all of Columbia; and Harold W. Gowdy, III, of Spartanburg, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Appellant,
John Curtis McCoy, was indicted for assault and battery with intent to kill
(ABWIK) and burglary in the first degree.  He was convicted as charged and
sentenced to consecutive sentences of five years on the ABWIK charge and
fifteen years on the burglary charge.  McCoy’s 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.  McCoy filed a separate pro se brief.  After a thorough review of the record 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] the appeal and grant counsel’s petition to be relieved.

APPEAL
DISMISSED.

ANDERSON,
HUFF, and BEATTY, JJ., concur.

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