PER CURIAM:  Rodney Mealing appeals his guilty plea for one count of second degree burglary and one count of grand larceny of more than $5,000.  Mealing alleges the trial judge erred by accepting his guilty plea without fully advising him of his constitutional rights.  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 Mealing's appeal and grant counsel's motion to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.[1]
