PER CURIAM: 
Jason Barnhill pled guilty to robbery and was sentenced to seven years imprisonment. 
Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), Barnhill’s counsel
attached a petition to be relieved as counsel.  Barnhill did not file a pro

v. Williams, 305 S.C. 116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991), we dismiss Barnhill’s
appeal and grant counsel’s petition to be relieved.

any issue on appeal, we decide this case without oral argument pursuant to
Rule 215 and 220(b)(2), SCACR.
