THE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA
In The Court of Appeals

In the Interest of Edward Harold J., a Minor under the Age of Seventeen, Appellant.

Appeal From Lexington County
 Richard W. Chewning, III, Family Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2008-UP-344
Submitted July 1, 2008 – Filed July 9, 2008   

APPEAL DISMISSED

Appellate Defender Robert M. Pachak, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Donald V. Myers, of Lexington, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Edward Harold J. pleaded guilty to one count of second-degree burglary and one count of grand larceny.  He appeals, arguing his guilty plea failed to comply with the mandates set forth in In re Gault, 387 U.S. 1 (1967).  Specifically, he maintains the circuit court erred by failing to advise him of his right to cross-examine the State’s witnesses.  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] Edward Harold J.’s appeal and grant counsel’s petition to be relieved. 

APPEAL DISMISSED.

HEARN, C.J., CURETON and GOOLSBY, A.J.J., concur.

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