The State, Respondent,

v.

Quantney A.
McConnell, Appellant.

Appeal From York County

Michael G. Nettles, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2009-UP-290

Submitted May 1, 2009 – Filed June 4, 2009   

APPEAL DISMISSED

Appellate Defender Kathrine H. Hudgins, 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 Kevin S. Brackett, of York, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Quantney
A. McConnell appeals his guilty plea for
burglary second degree, assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature, and
assault and battery with intent to kill.  He argues his plea was not voluntary because
the plea judge failed to advise him he would be subject to a life sentence if
he was convicted for a subsequent serious offense.  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 the appeal and
grant counsel's motion to be relieved.[1]

APPEAL
DISMISSED.

HEARN, C.J., THOMAS, and KONDUROS, JJ.,
concur.

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