v.

Shelton Darnell Ray, Appellant.


Appeal From Richland County
Michelle J. Childs, Circuit Court Judge


Unpublished Opinion No. 2008-UP-661
Submitted December 1, 2008 – Filed December 4, 2008


APPEAL DISMISSED


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

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, and Solicitor Warren B. Giese, all of Columbia, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Shelton Darnell Ray appeals his guilty plea to use of a vehicle without consent and sentence of time served.  Ray argues the trial court erred by not insuring his plea complied with the mandates set forth in Boykin v. Alabama, 395 U.S. 238 (1969).  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., SHORT and KONDUROS, JJ., concur. 


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