Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster; Chief Deputy Attorney
General John W. McIntosh; Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott,
all of Columbia; and Solicitor Druanne D. White, of Anderson; for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Anthony Spence was
convicted of driving under the influence and resisting arrest and sentenced
to thirty days imprisonment for DUI and one year imprisonment for resisting
arrest, the sentences to run consecutively.  Pursuant to Anders v. California,

v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967) and State v. Williams, 305 S.C.
116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991), we dismiss Spence’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.
