Assistant Appellate Defender Eleanor Duffy Cleary, Office of Appellate Defense, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, Office of the Attorney General, of Columbia; and Solicitor David M. Pascoe, Jr., of Summerville, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:� Edward Cason appeals his conviction of distribution of cocaine.� Cason claims the trial court erred when it denied his motion for a directed verdict because the State presented no credible evidence of the offense.� After a thorough review of the record, counsel�s brief, and Cason�s pro se 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] Cason�s appeal and grant counsel�s motion to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.

HEARN, C.J., and HUFF and BEATTY, JJ., concur.
