v.

Frankie Alan Dover, Appellant.

Appeal From Cherokee County

 J. Mark Hayes, II, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No.  2007-UP-323

Submitted June 1, 2007 – Filed June 15,
2007

APPEAL DISMISSED

Appellate Defender Robert M. Dudek, South Carolina Commission, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney
General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, Office
of the Attorney General, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Harold W. Gowdy, III, of
Spartanburg, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Frankie Dover appeals his sentence of twenty years
imprisonment, suspended upon the service of ten years and three years probation
for criminal sexual conduct in the second degree with a minor. Dover’s counsel
argues Dover’s guilty plea did not comply with Boykin v. Alabama, 395
U.S. 238 (1969).  Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967),
Dover’s counsel attached a petition to be relieved stating he has reviewed the
record and found the appeal to be without merit.  Dover filed a pro se brief and alleges numerous grounds for relief. We dismiss the appeal and grant counsel’s motion to be
relieved.

APPEAL
DISMISSED. [1] 

STILWELL,
SHORT, and WILLIAMS, JJ., concur.

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