APPEAL DISMISSED

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

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney
General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott,
Office of the Attorney General, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Robert M. Ariail,
of Greenville, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: In June 2003, Lamont Cutner
was tried and found guilty of armed robbery.  He was sentenced to life imprisonment
without parole.  On appeal, counsel for Cutner has filed a brief pursuant to
Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), asserting that there are no
meritorious grounds for appeal and requesting permission to withdraw from further
representation.  Cutner has not filed a pro se response. 

After a thorough 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.

APPEAL DISMISSED. [1]

ANDERSON, STILWELL, and SHORT, JJ., concur.

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