General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, all

PER CURIAM: Samuel M. Odom appeals his guilty plea to two counts of distribution

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[1] Odom’s appeal and grant counsel’s motion to be relieved.

APPEAL
DISMISSED.

THOMAS and KONDUROS JJ., concur.

Rule 215, SCACR.
