APPEAL DISMISSED

Eleanor Duffy Cleary, of Columbia; for Appellant.

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

PER CURIAM:  Burress appeals from his guilty plea to trafficking in
methamphetamine, arguing the plea judge failed to adequately advise him of his
constitutional rights.  Burress also filed a pro se brief arguing his
indictment was faulty.  After

California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and State v. Williams, 305 S.C.
116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991), we dismiss Burress’s appeal and grant counsel’s
motion to be relieved.[1]

APPEAL DISMISSED.

HEARN, C.J., and HUFF and KITTREDGE, JJ., concur.

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