Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, of Columbia, Ralph E. Hoisington, of Charleston, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Appellant, Monique McKinney, pled guilty to armed robbery, kidnapping, possession of a firearm during commission of a violent crime, possession of a firearm by a person under 21, credit card theft, and credit card fraud.  The trial judge sentenced her to ten years on both the robbery and kidnapping charges, five years on each of the firearm charges, and one year on each of the credit card charges with the sentences concurrent.  McKinney’s counsel attached to the brief a petition to be relieved as counsel, stating that he had reviewed the record and concluded this appeal lacks merit.  McKinney filed a separate pro se brief.  After a thorough review of the record 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] the appeal and grant counsel’s petition to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.
