v.

Shaun Antwan Holmes, Appellant.

Appeal From Charleston County
Doyet A. Early, III, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No.  2006-UP-138
Submitted March 1, 2006 – Filed March 9, 2006

APPEAL DISMISSED

Assistant Appellate Defender Robert M. Dudek, Office of Appellate Defense, of Columbia, for Appellant.

John Benjamin Aplin, S.C. Dept. of Probation Parole & Pardon, of Columbia, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  In November 2001, Shaun Antwan Holmes was sentenced to ten years imprisonment for strong-armed robbery suspended on the service of three years and five years probation.  Following a probation revocation hearing, the court revoked thirty-six months of Holmes’ probation.  Holmes’ counsel attached to the brief a petition to be relieved as counsel, stating that he had reviewed the record and concluded this appeal lacked merit.  Holmes did not file a separate pro se brief.

After a thorough review of the record 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 petition to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED

GOOLSBY, HUFF, and STILWELL, JJ., concur.

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