The State, Respondent,

v.

Jeramy
Williams, Appellant.

Appeal From Allendale County

 R. Markley Dennis, Jr., Circuit Court
Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2008-UP-142

Submitted March 3, 2008 – Filed March 4,
2008  

APPEAL DISMISSED

Deputy Chief Attorney 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 Salley W. Elliott, all
of Columbia; and Solicitor I. McDuffie Stone, of Hampton, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Jeramy Williams appeals his
convictions for distribution of crack cocaine and distribution of crack cocaine
near a park.  Williams claims the trial court erred when denying his motion for
a directed verdict because the State failed to present evidence of the
offenses.  William’s counsel
attached a petition to be relieved, stating he reviewed the record and
concluded this appeal lacks merit.  Williams filed a pro se brief.  In his pro se brief, Williams raises the same issue argued by his counsel.  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 William’s appeal and grant counsel’s
motion to be relieved.[1]

APPEAL DISMISSED.

ANDERSON, SHORT and THOMAS, JJ., concur.

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