v.

Angela Vaughn, Appellant.

Appeal From Anderson County

 Alexander S. Macaulay, Circuit Court
Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2008-UP-167

Submitted March 3, 2008 – Filed March 12,
2008   

APPEAL DISMISSED

Michael W. Barcroft, of Greenville, 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 Christina Theos Adams, of Anderson, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Angela Vaughn appeals her convictions and sentences
for murder and possession of a firearm during the commission of a violent crime. 
On appeal, Vaughn maintains the trial court erred in admitting testimony of an
alleged threat to the victim, allowing hearsay testimony from the victim’s
co-workers, and failing to grant a directed verdict.  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[1] Vaughn’s appeal and grant counsel’s motion to be relieved.

APPEAL
DISMISSED.

HEARN,
C.J., and PIEPER, J., and CURETON, A.J., concur.

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