APPEAL DISMISSED

Deputy Chief Appellate Defender for Capital Appeals Robert M.
Dudek, 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 Jay E. Hodge, Jr., of Cheraw, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Kelly Richardson appeals his conviction
for assault and battery with the intent to kill.  On appeal, his counsel argues
the trial court erred by denying his directed verdict motion. Additionally, Richardson
filed a pro se brief.  After a thorough review of the record and all briefs
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.

HUFF,
THOMAS, and PIEPER, JJ., concur.          

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