Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2010-UP-122

Submitted January 4, 2010 – Filed February

APPEAL DISMISSED

Appellate Defender Katherine H. Hudgins,
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; Solicitor Scarlett Anne Wilson, of Charleston,
for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Oliver Hicks appeals his guilty pleas for attempted armed robbery
and accessory after the fact of a felony, arguing the trial court erred in
refusing to consider his cooperation with the State in testifying against his
co-defendant when imposing his sentence after 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 Hicks's appeal
and grant counsel's motion to be relieved.[1]

APPEAL DISMISSED. 

WILLIAMS, PIEPER, and
LOCKEMY, JJ., concur.

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