Unpublished Opinion No. 2008-UP-035

Submitted January 1, 2008 – Filed January 11, 2008

APPEAL DISMISSED

Chief
Attorney Joseph L. Savitz III, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney
General John W. McIntosh, and Assistant Deputy Attorney General Donald J.
Zalenka, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Donald V. Myers,  of Lexington,  for
Respondent.

PER
CURIAM:  Willie S. Merriweather appeals his guilty plea to
second-degree burglary and sentence of nine years imprisonment.  Merriweather
argues his guilty plea was conditional, and thus, invalid.  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] Merriweather’s appeal and grant counsel’s motion to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.

ANDERSON, SHORT and WILLIAMS, JJ., concur.

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