Submitted October 1, 2009 – Filed October

APPEAL DISMISSED

Appellate Defender M. Celia Robinson, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney
General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, all
of Columbia; and Solicitor Robert M. Ariail, of Greenville, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Kevin
Black appeals his guilty pleas for first-degree assault with intent to commit
criminal sexual conduct with a minor and lewd act upon a child. On appeal, his
counsel argues his guilty pleas did not comply with the mandates set forth in Boykin
v. Alabama, 395 U.S. 238 (1969).  Additionally, Black filed a pro se
brief.  After a thorough
review of the record and all briefs 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.

Huff, Thomas, and Pieper, JJ., concur. 

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