Elliott, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Donald V. Myers, of Lexington, for
Respondent.

PER
CURIAM:  Bobby McKnight appeals his guilty plea and sentence of
four years imprisonment for drug for breaking into a motor vehicle and
possession of burglary tools, arguing the trial court failed to comply with the
mandates set forth in Boykin v. Alabama, 395 U.S. 238 (1969), in
accepting his plea. After a thorough review of the record and counsel’s
brief 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[1] McKnight’s appeal and grant counsel’s motion to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.

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

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