The State, Respondent,

v.

Eric Sharmel Scriven, Appellant.


Appeal From Colleton County
 G. Thomas Cooper, Jr., Circuit Court Judge


Unpublished Opinion No. 2008-UP-490
Submitted August 1, 2008 – Filed August 15, 2008   


APPEAL DISMISSED


Appellate Defender Lanelle C. Durant, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, and Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W., Elliott, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Issac McDuffie Stone, III, of Beaufort, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Scriven appeals his conviction of possession of crack cocaine.  He argues the trial court erred in denying his motion to suppress the crack cocaine because it was obtained as the fruit of an illegal search.  After a thorough review of the record and briefs 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.

KONDUROS, J., CURETON, and GOOLSBY, A.J.J., concur.


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