Unpublished Opinion No. 2008-UP-367

Submitted July 1, 2008 – Filed July 11,

APPEAL DISMISSED

LaNelle C. DuRant, South Carolina Commission on 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 Cecil Kelly Jackson, of Aiken, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Bostic
appeals his guilty pleas to manufacturing crack cocaine, trafficking crack
cocaine, trafficking cocaine of 28 to 100 grams, and possession of a pistol
with an obliterated or removed serial number.  On appeal, Bostic’s counsel
alleges the plea did not meet the
mandates of Boykin v. Alabama, 395 U.S. 238 (1969).  After a thorough review of the record, counsel’s
brief, and Bostic’s pro se 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] Bostic’s appeal and grant counsel’s motion to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.

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

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