The State,        Respondent,

v.

Tiffany A. Stanley,        Appellant.

Appeal From Horry County
Steven H. John, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No.  2003-UP-369
Submitted February 20, 2003 – Filed May 22, 2003

APPEAL DISMISSED

Assistant Appellate Defender Robert M. Pachak, of Columbia; for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster; Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh; Assistant Deputy Attorney General Charles H. Richardson, of Columbia; Solicitor John Gregory Hembree, of Conway; for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  On appeal, Tiffany Stanley’s appellate counsel argues that Stanley’s guilty plea failed to comply with the mandates set forth in Boykin v. Alabama, 395 U.S. 238 (1969). 

Stanley’s appellate counsel submitted a petition to be relieved as counsel, stating he has reviewed the record and has concluded Stanley’s appeal is without merit.  Stanley did not file any documents with the court.

After a review of the record as required by Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and State v. Williams, 305 S.C. 116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991), we hold there are no directly appealable issues that are arguable on their merits.  Accordingly, we dismiss Stanley’s appeal and grant counsel’s motion to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.
