PER CURIAM:  Lamar Graves appeals his conviction of armed robbery

Williams, 305 S.C. 116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991), we dismiss Graves’s appeal
and grant counsel’s motion to be relieved. [1]

APPEAL
DISMISSED. 

SHORT, THOMAS, and PIEPER, JJ., concur.

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