APPEAL DISMISSED

Acting Chief Attorney Joseph L. Savitz, III, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Donald J. Zelenka, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Harold W. Gowdy, III, of Spartanburg, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Tammy Renee Jones appeals her convictions and sentences of thirty and fifteen years for kidnapping and robbery.  Her counsel contends the trial court improperly allowed hearsay testimony that incurably prejudiced Jones.  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 Jones’s appeal and grant counsel’s motion to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED. [1]

GOOLSBY, ANDERSON, and SHORT, JJ., concur.
