APPEAL DISMISSED

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 Salley W.

PER CURIAM:  Keena
Rivers appeals his consecutive sentences of twelve years, three years, and one
year for possession with intent to distribute crack cocaine, failure to stop
for a blue light, and possession of marijuana, respectively.  Rivers argues the
trial court erred by not allowing him to present a defense.  After a thorough review of the record, and
counsel's brief,  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
the appeal and grant counsel's motion to be relieved.[1]

APPEAL
DISMISSED.

SHORT, THOMAS,
and KONDUROS, JJ., concur.

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