unlawful possession of a controlled substance, and one count of unlawful possession
of a prescription drug and was committed to the South Carolina Department of

Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967) and State v. Williams,
305 S.C. 116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991), we dismiss Landon’s appeal and grant counsel’s
petition to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.

on appeal, we decide this case without oral argument pursuant to Rule 215
and 220(b)(2), SCACR.
