PER CURIAM:  Ann Thorpe pled guilty
to resisting arrest and the circuit court imposed a fine of $500.00.  Additionally,
the circuit court sentenced her to one-year imprisonment, provided that on payment
of $250.00, the balance of her sentence would be suspended, with probation for
two years, the supervision taking place in Virginia.  Pursuant to Anders
v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), Thorpe’s counsel attached a petition
to be relieved.  Thorpe did not file a pro se response.

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 Thorpe’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
