Unpublished Opinion No. 2008-UP-395

APPEAL DISMISSED

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

Teresa A. Knox, Deputy Director for Legal Services, Tommy Evans, Jr., Legal Counsel, and J. Benjamin Aplin, Legal Counsel; all of Columbia, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  James Young appeals the revocation of his suspended sentence.  Young argues the circuit court committed an abuse of discretion by revoking his suspended sentence.  Young contends the circuit court ignored his explanations for why his suspended sentence should not be revoked.  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] Young's appeal and grant counsel's motion 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.
