Appeal From Aiken County

James R. Barber, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No.  2003-UP-441

Submitted April 18, 2003 – Filed June
25, 2003

APPEAL DISMISSED

Deputy Chief Attorney Joseph L. Savitz, III, of Columbia,
for Appellant. 

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General John
W. McIntosh and Assistant Deputy Attorney General Donald J. Zelenka, all of
Columbia; and Solicitor Barbara R. Morgan, of Aiken, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Charles Donnell Dublin was indicted by
the Aiken County grand jury for murder, assault and battery with intent to kill,
armed robbery, attempted armed robbery and possession of a firearm during the
commission of a violent crime.  Following a jury trial, Dublin was found guilty
as charged and sentenced to life without the possibility of parole. 

Counsel for Dublin attached a petition to be relieved to
the final brief stating he had reviewed the record and found the appeal to be
without merit. Dublin filed a pro se brief.  After a review of
the record and Dublin’s and counsel’s 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 [1] Dublin’s
appeal and grant counsel’s motion to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.

CURETON, ANDERSON and HUFF, JJ., concur.

[1] Because oral argument would not aid
the court in resolving the issues on appeal, we decide this case without oral argument pursuant
to Rule 215, SCACR.
