v.

Alfred Walker, Appellant.

Appeal from Barnwell County

Perry M. Buckner,
Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2008-UP-021

Submitted January 1, 2008 – Filed January 10, 2008   

APPEAL DISMISSED

Chief
Attorney Joseph L. Savitz, III, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney
General John W. McIntosh, and Assistant Deputy Attorney General Donald J.
Zelenka, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Barbara R. Morgan, of Aiken, for Respondent.

PER
CURIAM:  Alfred Walker appeals his guilty pleas pursuant to Alford
v. North Carolina, 400 U.S. 25 (1970), and two
consecutive life sentences for two counts of murder, as well as his guilty
pleas to second-degree burglary, assault and battery with intent to kill, armed
robbery, criminal conspiracy, and possession of a weapon during the commission
of a violent crime and concurrent sentences amounting to thirty years
imprisonment.  Walker argues his guilty pleas were conditional, and thus,
invalid.  After a thorough review of the
record, counsel’s brief, and Walker’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] Walker’s appeal and grant counsel’s motion to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.

ANDERSON, SHORT AND WILLIAMS, JJ., CONCUR.

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