The State, Respondent,

v.

Terry Perry Michael Scott, Appellant.


Appeal From Pickens County
Larry R. Patterson, Circuit Court Judge


Unpublished Opinion 2007-UP-303
Submitted June 1, 2007 – Filed June 8, 2007


APPEAL DISMISSED


Appellate Defender Eleanor Duffy Cleary, of Columbia, for Appellant. 

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, and Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Robert M. Ariail, of Greenville, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Terry Perry Michael Scott appeals his convictions and sentences for criminal sexual conduct with a minor, second degree, and committing a lewd act on a child.  Counsel for Scott attached to the final brief a petition to be relieved as counsel.  Scott filed a separate pro se response.

After a review of the record as required by Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and State v. Williams, 305 S.C. 116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991), we hold there are no directly appealable issues that are arguable on their merits.  Accordingly, we dismiss Scott’s appeal and grant counsel’s petition to be relieved.[1]

APPEAL DISMISSED.

STILWELL, SHORT, and WILLIAMS, JJ., concur. 


[1] We decide this case without oral argument pursuant to Rule 215, SCACR.
