v.

Terrence T.
Wakefield, Appellant.

Appeal From Aiken County

 Diane Schafer Goodstein, Circuit Court
Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2008-UP-170

Submitted March 3, 2008 – Filed March 12,
2008   

APPEAL DISMISSED

Deputy Chief Attorney for Capital Appeals Robert M. Dudek, 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: Terrence Wakefield appeals his guilty pleas to carjacking, failure to
stop for a blue light, and failure to stop at the scene of an accident where
there was property damage.  On appeal, Wakefield maintains his guilty pleas
failed to conform with the mandates set forth in Boykin v. Alabama, 395
U.S. 238 (1969), because the plea court failed to adequately advise him of his
constitutional rights.  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] Wakefield’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.
