The State, Respondent,

v.

Timothy A.
Floyd, Appellant.

Appeal From York County

 Lee S. Alford, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2008-UP-079

Submitted February 1, 2008 – Filed
February 6, 2008

APPEAL DISMISSED

Appellate Defender Eleanor D. Cleary, South Carolina Commission of
Indigent Defense, Division of Appellate Defense, 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 Kevin Scott Brackett, of York, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Timothy
Floyd appeals his guilty pleas to
possession with intent to distribute crack cocaine and possession of
marijuana.  On appeal, Floyd maintains his guilty pleas failed to conform with
the mandates set forth in Boykin v. Alabama, 395 U.S. 238 (1969),
because the plea court failed to advise him of his right to confront and
cross-examine witnesses against him.  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] Floyd’s appeal and grant counsel’s motion to be relieved.

APPEAL
DISMISSED.

ANDERSON, SHORT
and THOMAS, JJ., concur.

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