APPEAL DISMISSED

Appellate Defender Lanelle C. Durant, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney
General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott,
Office of the Attorney General, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Donald V. Myers,

PER CURIAM:  Christopher
Dixon appeals his guilty plea to possession of cocaine and sentence of three
years imprisonment suspended to eighteen months probation with alcohol testing
and drug treatment.  Dixon alleges the

738 (1967) and State v. Williams, 305 S.C. 116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991),
we dismiss Dixon’s appeal and grant counsel’s motion to be relieved.[1]

APPEAL
DISMISSED.

WILLIAMS,
PIEPER, and GEATHERS, JJ., concur.

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