PER CURIAM:  Appellant,
Lawrence McCoy, was indicted for and pled guilty to three counts of distribution
of crack cocaine, two counts of distribution of crack cocaine within a half mile
of a school or park, and one count of distribution of marijuana.  The trial
judge sentenced McCoy to concurrent terms of three years on the marijuana charge
and six years on each of the other charges.  McCoy’s counsel attached to
the brief a petition to be relieved as counsel, stating that he had reviewed the
record and concluded this appeal lacks merit.  McCoy did not file a
separate pro se brief.  We dismiss pursuant to Anders v.
California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967) and State v. Williams, 305 S.C. 116,
406 S.E.2d 357 (1991).  Counsel’s petition to be relieved is granted.1

APPEAL DISMISSED. 

ANDERSON, HUFF, and WILLIAMS, JJ.,
concur.

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