Appeal From Edgefield County

 Jackson V. Gregory, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2008-UP-302

Submitted June 2, 2008 – Filed June 11,

DISMISSED

Appellate Defender Eleanor Duffy Cleary, 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. Meyers, of Lexington, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Tyler Stevens appeals his guilty plea to armed
robbery, contending his waiver of rights colloquy was insufficient and therefore
failed to comply with the mandates of Boykin v. Alabama, 395 U.S. 238
(1969).  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 Stevens’ appeal and grant counsel’s motion to be relieved.[1]

DISMISSED.

HEARN,
C.J., CURETON, A.J., and GOOLSBY, A.J., concur.

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