APPEAL DISMISSED

Appellate Defender M. Celia Robinson, of
Columbia, for Appellant.

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

PER CURIAM:  Willis Weary appeals his first-degree burglary
conviction and eighteen-year sentence.  Weary argues the trial court erred in admitting his statement to
police and DNA evidence.  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., Huff, and Geathers, JJ., concur.

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