Appeal From Aiken County
James C. Williams, Jr., Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No.� 2003-UP-435�
Submitted April 18, 2003 � Filed June 25, 2003

APPEAL DISMISSED

Senior Assistant Appellate Defender Wanda H. Haile, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Deputy Director for Legal Services Teresa A. Knox, Legal Counsel Tommy Evans, Jr. and Legal Counsel J. Benjamin Aplin, all of Columbia, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:� Anderson Hightower, III appeals an order of the circuit court denying his motion to reconsider a prior order denying his request for an appeal bond.� Hightower argues the lower court erred in denying his original petition for a bond because the court incorrectly determined S.C. Code Ann. � 18-1-90 does not provide for the grant of a bond on appeal from a probation revocation.�

Counsel for Hightower submitted a final brief and attached a petition to be relieved stating he reviewed the record and found the appeal to be without merit.� After a thorough review of the record and counsel�s 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 [1] Hightower�s appeal and grant counsel�s motion to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.
