The State, Respondent,

v.

Rainey Crosby, Appellant.

Appeal From Lexington County

 Edward W. Miller, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2008-UP-080

Submitted February 1, 2008 – Filed
February 6, 2008

APPEAL DISMISSED

Deputy Chief Attorney for Capital Appeals Robert M. Dudek, 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 Donald V. Myers, of Lexington, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Rainey Crosby appeals his guilty plea to failing to stop for a blue
light and unlawful possession of a firearm.  On appeal, Crosby maintains his
guilty plea failed to conform with the mandates set forth in Boykin v.
Alabama, 395 U.S. 238 (1969).  Specifically, Crosby maintains the trial
court abused its discretion by failing to adequately advise him of his
constitutional rights.  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] Crosby’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.
