v.

James Staley, Appellant.

Appeal From Berkeley County

R. Markley Dennis, Jr., Circuit Court
Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2012-UP-189   

Submitted March 1, 2012 – Filed March 14,
2012

APPEAL DISMISSED

Appellate Defender LaNelle Cantey DuRant,
of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Alan Wilson, Chief Deputy
Attorney General John W. McIntosh, and Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley
W. Elliott, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Scarlett Anne Wilson, of Charleston,
for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: James Staley appeals his
convictions for assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature, failure to
stop for a blue light, and discharging a firearm at or into a dwelling, arguing
the trial court erred in charging the jury on the "hand of one, hand of
all" theory.  After a thorough
review of the record and briefs 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 the appeal and grant counsel's motion to be relieved.[1]

APPEAL DISMISSED. 

PIEPER, KONDUROS, and
GEATHERS, JJ., concur.

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