 J. Michelle Childs, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2009-UP-312

Submitted May 1, 2009 – Filed June 11,
2009   

APPEAL DISMISSED

Deputy Chief Appellate Defender Wanda H. Carter, of Columbia, for
Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney
General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott,
of Columbia; and Solicitor Warren B. Giese, of Columbia, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Takita
Onique Jefferson appeals from her guilty
plea to financial identity theft and five counts of forgery.  On appeal, Jefferson
argues the plea judge erred in accepting her guilty plea without inquiring whether
Jefferson understood she was waiving her right to confront her accusers.  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 the appeal and
grant counsel's motion to be relieved.[1]

APPEAL
DISMISSED.

HEARN, C.J., THOMAS, and KONDUROS, JJ.,
concur.

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