James E. Lockemy, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2003-UP-090

Submitted September 25, 2002 – Filed

APPEAL DISMISSED

Assistant Appellate Defender Robert M. Dudek, of Columbia;
for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster; Chief Deputy Attorney
General John W. McIntosh; Assistant Deputy Attorney General Donald J. Zelenka,
of Columbia; Walter M. Bailey, Jr., of Summerville; for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Pattie Williams Syphrett appeals
her convictions for murder, kidnapping, and criminal conspiracy.  Counsel for
Syphrett attached to the final brief a petition to be relieved as counsel. 
Syphrett did not file a separate pro se response. 

After a review of the record as required
by Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967) and State v. Williams,
305 S.C. 116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991), we hold there are no directly appealable
issues that are arguable on their merits.  Accordingly, we dismiss Syphrett’s
appeal and grant counsel’s petition to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.

CONNOR, STILWELL, and HOWARD, JJ.,
concur.
