Unpublished Opinion No. 2012-UP-178  
Submitted March 1, 2012 – Filed March 14, 2012


APPEAL DISMISSED


Chief Appellate Defender Robert M. Dudek, of Columbia; and Kenneth Danafelix Smith, pro se, for Appellant.

Attorney General Alan Wilson, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, and Assistant Deputy Attorney General Donald J. Zelenka, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Barry Barnette, of Spartanburg, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Kenneth Danafelix Smith appeals his convictions for murder and breach of peace of a high and aggravated nature, arguing the trial court erred in failing to direct a verdict in his favor on its own motion.  Smith also filed multiple pro se briefs.  After a thorough review of the record and all 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[1] the appeal and grant counsel's motion to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.

PIEPER, KONDUROS, and GEATHERS, JJ., concur.


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