Assistant Appellate Defender Aileen P. Clare, South Carolina Commission
on Indigent Defense, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney
General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott;
and Solicitor Barbara R. Morgan, of Aiken, for Respondent.

PER
CURIAM:  Appellant, Craig Gantt, pled
guilty to assault and battery with intent to kill.  The trial court sentenced Gantt
to ten years on the assault charge and revoked ten years of a probationary
sentence.  Gantt’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.  Gantt has 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.

Rule 215, SCACR.
