 Doyet A. Early, III, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2008-UP-186

Submitted March 3, 2008 – Filed March 17,
2008

APPEAL DISMISSED

Appellate Defender Robert M. Dudek, South Carolina Commission of
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 Harold W. Gowdy,
III, of Spartanburg, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: 
Hershal Jackson appeals his sentence for second-degree burglary and petit
larceny.  On appeal, Jackson maintains the trial court erred in imposing a
harsher sentence than normally applied because he exercised his right to a jury
trial.  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[1] Jackson’s appeal and grant counsel’s motion to be relieved.

APPEAL
DISMISSED.

HEARN,
C.J., and PIEPER, J., and GOOLSBY, A.J., concur.

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