Appeal From Richland County

Kenneth G. Goode, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2010-UP-121

Submitted January 4, 2010 – Filed February
11, 2010

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 Blair Giese, all of Columbia, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Michael Kenny Carter appeals his guilty plea for accessory after the fact
to armed robbery, arguing the trial court erred in accepting his guilty plea because
his plea did not comply with the mandates set forth in Boykin v. Alabama,
395 U.S. 238 (1969).  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. 

WILLIAMS, PIEPER, and
LOCKEMY, JJ., concur.

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