Appeal from Aiken County

Thomas A. Russo, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2009-UP-026

Submitted January 1, 2009 – Filed January 13, 2009

APPEAL DISMISSED

Appellate
Defender Robert M. Pachak, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney
General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh,
Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, all of Columbia; and
Solicitor Barbara R. Morgan, of Aiken, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Grant,
appeals his convictions for grand larceny, burglary in the second degree, and two
counts of ill treatment toward animals. He argues the trial court erred in
denying his motion for a directed verdict where there was insufficient evidence
of guilt. 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 Grant’s appeal and grant
counsel’s motion to be relieved.[1]

APPEAL
DISMISSED.

Huff, Thomas, and Lockemy, JJ., concur.

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