Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Charles H. Richardson, Assistant Attorney General W. Rutledge Martin, of Columbia; and Harold W. Gowdy, III, of Spartanburg; for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Carlos Smith was indicted by a Spartanburg County grand jury for two counts of assault and battery with intent to kill and one count of possession of a pistol by a person under twenty-one.   Following a jury trial, Smith was found guilty on all charges and sentenced to ten years each to run concurrent on the ABIK charges and one year consecutive with credit for time served on the weapons charge.  Smith’s counsel attached to the final brief a petition to be relieved as counsel stating he had reviewed the record and concluded the appeal lacked merit.  We dismiss ^[1] pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967) and State v. Williams, 305 S.C. 116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991).  Counsel’s petition to be relieved is granted.

APPEAL DISMISSED.
