PER CURIAM:� Trayawn L. Burgess pled guilty to simple possession of crack cocaine, resisting arrest, and failure to stop for a blue light.� He was sentenced to ten years for possession of crack cocaine, three years, concurrent, for failure to stop for a blue light, and one year, concurrent, for resisting arrest. Burgess� appellate counsel filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).� Counsel additionally submitted a petition to be relieved from representation, asserting there are no directly appealable issues of arguable merit.� Burgess did not file a pro se response with the Court.

After a review of the record pursuant to Anders and State v. Williams, 305 S.C. 116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991), we dismiss the appeal and grant counsel�s petition to be relieved. [1]
