APPEAL DISMISSED


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

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General, Salley W. Elliot, of Columbia, and Solicitor, David M. Pascoe, Jr., of Summerville, for Respondent. 

PER CURIAM:  Timothy Dwayne Inman appeals his conviction of four counts of kidnapping and subsequent life sentence.  Inman argues the trial court erred in refusing to direct a verdict on the kidnapping charges.

Williams, 305 S.C. 116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991), we dismiss[1] Inman’s appeal and grant counsel’s motion to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.
