John C. Hayes, III, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2012-UP-232 

Submitted April 2, 2012 – Filed April 18,
2012

APPEAL DISMISSED

Appellate Defender LaNelle Cantey DuRant,
of Columbia, and Raymond Murray, pro se, for Appellant.

Attorney General Alan Wilson, Chief Deputy
Attorney General John W. McIntosh, and Senior Assistant Deputy Attorney General
Salley W. Elliott, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Kevin S. Brackett, of York,
for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Raymond
Murray appeals the denial of his motion to reopen his 1987 criminal sexual
conduct case because his plea was involuntary, arguing the trial court erred in
denying the motion based on lack of jurisdiction.  Additionally, Murray filed a pro se brief.  After a
thorough review of the record and briefs 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.

PIEPER,
KONDUROS, and GEATHERS, JJ., concur.

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