v.

Jarmise Lamar Cathcart, Appellant.

Appeal From York County

 John C. Hayes III, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2004-UP-446

Submitted July 7, 2004 – Filed August
25, 2004

APPEAL DISMISSED

Assistant Appellate Defender Tara S. Taggart, of the Office
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,
all of Columbia; and  Solicitor Thomas E. Pope, of York, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Jarmise Lamar Cathcart pled
guilty to grand larceny, failure to stop for a law enforcement vehicle, and
possession of a stolen vehicle.  He was sentenced to concurrent sentences of
six years on the possession of a stolen vehicle and grand larceny charges, and
three years for the failure to stop for a law enforcement vehicle charge.  Cathcart
appeals, arguing his guilty plea did not comply with the mandates set forth
in Boykin v. Alabama, 395 U.S. 238 (1969). 

Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S.
738 (1967), Cathcart’s counsel attached a petition to be relieved, stating she
has reviewed the record and concluded the appeal lacks merit.  Cathcart filed
a pro se response which we have considered.  After a thorough
review of the record pursuant to Anders and State v. Williams,
305 S.C. 116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991), we dismiss the appeal and grant counsel’s
petition to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED. [1]

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

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