Appeal From Lexington County

John C. Few, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2008-UP-458

Submitted August 1, 2008 – Filed August 7,

APPEAL DISMISSED

Appellate Defender Katherine H. Hudgins, South Carolina Commission
on Indigent Defense, Division of Appellate Defense, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney
General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott,
Office of the Attorney General, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Donald V. Myers,
of Lexington, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Damond D. Hardy appeals his guilty plea to accessory
after the fact and sentence of fifteen years.  Hardy argues the trial court
erred by sentencing him to the maximum allowed sentence and failing to consider
his cooperation during the trial of a co-defendant.  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 Hardy’s appeal
and grant counsel’s motion to be relieved. [1]

APPEAL
DISMISSED. 

KONDUROS, J., CURETON,
A.J., and GOOLSBY, A.J., concur.

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