Appeal From Pickens County

 Henry F. Floyd, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2004-UP-447

Submitted July 7, 2004 – Filed August 25, 2004

APPEAL DISMISSED

Assistant Appellate Defender Aileen P. Clare, Office of Appellate
Defense, 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 Robert M. Ariail, of Greenville, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Jeremiah Douglas,
Jr., appeals his conviction for unlawful possession of a pistol and possession
of a controlled substance.  Douglas argues his sentence of 90 days imprisonment,
$250 fine, and two years of probation is so disproportionate to the offense
it amounts to unconstitutional cruel and unusual punishment.  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 Douglas’s appeal under Rule 220(b)(2), SCACR and grant
counsel’s motion to be relieved. [1]

APPEAL DISMISSED.

HEARN, C.J., HUFF and KITTREDGE, JJ.,
concur.

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