APPEAL DISMISSED

Chief Attorney Daniel T. Stacey,
of Columbia for Appellant.

Deputy Director for Legal Services Teresa A. Knox, 
Legal Counsel Tommy Evans, Jr., Legal Counsel J. Benajmin Aplin, of Columbia;
for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Manning Peterson appeals from
his probation revocation, arguing the trial court erred in revoking his probation
in full.  Peterson’s counsel attached to the brief a petition to be relieved
as counsel, stating he had reviewed the record and concluded Peterson’s appeal
lacks merit.  Peterson filed a separate pro se brief.  After a thorough
review of the record, counsel’s brief, and Peterson’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] Peterson’s appeal and grant counsel’s
motion to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.

HEARN, C.J., GOOLSBY and SHULER, JJ., concur.

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