Kathrine H. Hudgins, of Columbia for Appellant.
Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, Office of the Attorney General, of Columbia; and Solicitor Robert M. Ariail, of Greenville, for Respondent.
PER CURIAM: Natalie Byrd appeals her concurrent sentence of five years and one year for failure to return rental property and financial transaction card fraud. She maintains the trial court erred in refusing to consider house arrest as an alternative to prison time. After a thorough review of the record, counsel’s brief, and Byrd’s pro se 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 Byrd’s appeal and grant counsel’s motion to be relieved.[1]
APPEAL DISMISSED.
ANDERSON, HUFF, and THOMAS, JJ., concur.
[1] We decide this case without oral argument pursuant to Rule 215, SCACR.
