PER CURIAM:  On February 25, 2003, a jury found Donald Robinson guilty of distribution of crack cocaine and conspiracy to distribute crack cocaine.  Robinson was sentenced to concurrent sentences of twenty-five years and a $25,000 fine for distribution and twelve and one-half years and a $12,500 fine for conspiracy.  On appeal, counsel for Robinson has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), asserting that there are no meritorious grounds for appeal and requesting permission to withdraw from further representation.  Robinson did not file a pro se response. 

After a thorough review of the record pursuant to Anders and State v. Williams, 305 S.C. 116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991), we dismiss the appeal and grant counsel�s petition to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.[1]
