Appeal From Spartanburg County

J. Derham Cole, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2004-UP-077

Submitted November 19, 2003 – Filed
February 12, 2004

APPEAL DISMISSED

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

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney
General John W. McIntosh,  Assistant Deputy Attorney General Donald J. Zelenka,
all of Columbia; and Solicitor Harold W. Gowdy, III, of Spartanburg, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Robert Brandon Duncan appeals
his convictions and sentences for murder, armed robbery, and possession of an
explosive device.    Counsel for Duncan attached to the final brief a petition
to be relieved as counsel.  Duncan filed a separate pro se response. 

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 Duncan’s
appeal and grant counsel’s petition to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.

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