APPEAL DISMISSED

Assistant Appellate Defender Robert M. Pachak, of Columbia,
for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney
General John W. McIntosh and Assistant Deputy Attorney General Charles H. Richardson,
all of Columbia; and Solicitor J. Gregory Hembree, of Conway, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Corinthian Furtick was convicted of two counts of distribution
of crack cocaine.  He was sentenced to five years for each count, to be served
concurrently.  Furtick’s appellate counsel filed a brief pursuant to Anders
v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).  Counsel additionally submitted a petition
to be relieved from representation, asserting there are no directly appealable
issues of arguable merit.  Furtick filed a pro se response with
the Court.

After a review of the record pursuant to Anders and State
v. Williams, 305 S.C. 116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991), we dismiss the appeal
and grant counsel’s petition to be relieved.
