Unpublished Opinion No. 2008-UP-487
Submitted August 1, 2008 Filed August 15, 2008   

APPEAL DISMISSED

Appellate Defender Eleanor Duffy Cleary, 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 Barbara R. Morgan, of Aiken, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Bonita Brown was convicted of assault on a police officer while resisting arrest, public disorderly conduct, and simple assault and battery.  Brown appeals her convictions and sentences, arguing the circuit court erred in denying her motion for a mistrial.  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] Brown's appeal and grant counsel's petition to be relieved. 

APPEAL DISMISSED.

KONDUROS, J., CURETON, and GOOLSBY, A.J.J., concur.

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