 Larry R. Patterson, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No.  2008-UP-573

Submitted October 1, 2008 – Filed October

APPEAL DISMISSED

Appellate Defender Eleanor Duffy Cleary, South Carolina Commission
of 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; Office
of the Attorney General, of Columbia; and Solicitor Donald V. Myers, of
Lexington; for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Shepherd was convicted of trafficking
cocaine, ten grams or more, but less than twenty-eight grams.  On appeal, Shepherd’s counsel argues the trial court erred in denying Shepherd’s
motion to suppress the cocaine discovered in the search of the car.  Shepherd also filed a pro se brief.  After
a thorough review of the record, counsel’s brief, and Shepherd’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 the appeal and
grant counsel’s motion to be relieved.[1]

APPEAL
DISMISSED.

HEARN, C.J., and GEATHERS, J., and CURETON, A.J., concur.

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