Unpublished Opinion No. 2012-UP-322 
Submitted May 1, 2012 – Filed May 30, 2012

APPEAL DISMISSED

Senior Appellate Defender Joseph L. Savitz, III, of Columbia, and Larry Brown, a.k.a. George Porterfield, pro se, for Appellant.

Attorney General Alan Wilson, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, Senior Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Donald J. Zelenka, and Solicitor Daniel E. Johnson, all of Columbia, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Larry Brown, a.k.a.

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. 

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

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