PER CURIAM: 
David Ceasar was convicted of possession of a weapon during the commission
of a violent crime and armed robbery.  He was sentenced to five years imprisonment

After review of the record 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 Ceasar’s appeal and grant counsel’s petition to be relieved.

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