Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney
General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott,
all of Columbia; and Solicitor Harold W. Gowdy, III of Spartanburg, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Lonnie Geter was convicted
of burglary in the first degree, robbery and assault and battery of a high and
aggravated nature (ABHAN).  The circuit court sentenced him to life in prison
for burglary, 15 years imprisonment for common law robbery, and ten years imprisonment
for ABHAN.  Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), Geter’s
counsel attached a petition to be relieved.  Geter did file a pro se response.

After review of the record 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 Geter’s appeal and grant counsel’s petition
to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.

on appeal, we decide this case without oral argument pursuant to Rule 215
and 220(b)(2), SCACR.
