DISMISSED

Deputy Chief Attorney for Capital Appeals Robert M. Dudek, 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 Thomas E. Pope, of York, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Lamario
Pendergrass appeals his guilty plea to failure
to stop for a blue light, possession with intent to distribute crack cocaine,
possession with intent to distribute crack cocaine within the proximity of a
park, simple possession of marijuana, and resisting arrest.  He argues the
brevity of his waiver of rights colloquy rendered it inadequate to satisfy the
requirements 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 Pendergrass’
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.
