v.

Katrice Roshelle Ferguson       
Appellant.

Appeal From Greenville County

C. Victor Pyle, Jr., Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2003-UP-726

Submitted October 15, 2003 – Filed December
16, 2003

APPEAL DISMISSED

Chief Attorney Daniel T. Stacey,
Office of Appellate Defense, of Columbia, for Appellant.

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

PER CURIAM:  Katrice Ferguson was indicted
of and subsequently convicted of armed robbery, assault and battery of a high
and aggravated nature, conspiracy, grand larceny, and kidnapping.  Ferguson
was tried by jury and found guilty.

Ferguson’s appellate counsel submitted a petition to
be relieved as counsel, stating he has reviewed the record and has concluded
Ferguson’s appeal is without merit.  Ferguson did not file a pro se brief
with the court.

After a review of the record as required by Anders
v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and State v. Williams, 305 S.C.
116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991), we hold there are no directly appealable issues
that are arguable on their merits.  Accordingly, we dismiss Ferguson’s appeal
and grant counsel’s motion to be relieved. [1]

APPEAL DISMISSED.

HUFF, STILWELL, and BEATTY, JJ., concur.

[1]   Because oral argument would not aid the court
in resolving the issues on appeal, we decide this case without oral argument
pursuant to Rules 215 and 220(b)(2), SCACR.
