Appeal From Lexington County
William P. Keesley, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2008-UP-708
Submitted December 1, 2008 – Filed December 16, 2008   

APPEAL DISMISSED

Deputy Chief Appellate Defender Wanda H. Carter, 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 Donald V. Myers, of Lexington, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Jerry Kuzma appeals his probation revocation.  Kuzma argues the trial court erred in revoking his probation based on his guilty plea pursuant to North Carolina v. Alford, 400 U.S. 25 (1970).  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. 

WILLIAMS, PIEPER, and GEATHERS, JJ., concur.

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