Unpublished Opinion No. 2009-UP-331

Submitted May 1, 2009 – Filed June 15,

APPEAL DISMISSED

Appellate Defender Robert M. Pachak, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney
General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott,
of Columbia; and Solicitor Edgar Lewis Clements, III, of Florence, for
Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Lamont
Cusack appeals his guilty pleas  and sentences for armed robbery and four
counts of kidnapping, arguing the plea court failed to advise him of the
constitutional rights he would be waiving by pleading guilty.  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.

HEARN, C.J., THOMAS, and KONDUROS, JJ.,
concur.

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