PER CURIAM:  Charles Mitchell
Finley, Sr., was indicted for possession of crack cocaine.  He was convicted
and sentenced to fifteen years imprisonment.  Pursuant to Anders v. California,
386 U.S. 738 (1967), Finley’s counsel attached a petition to be relieved.  Finley
did not file a pro se response.

After review of the record 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 Finley’s appeal and grant counsel’s petition
to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED. [1]

GOOLSBY, HUFF, and HOWARD, JJ., concurring.

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