PER CURIAM:  Eugene Thomas Green appeals from his guilty plea for second degree burglary and grand larceny, arguing his plea was not knowingly or voluntarily made because he did not know whether he was pleading to violent or non-violent offenses.  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., THOMAS, and KONDUROS, JJ., concur.


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