Appellate Defender Eleanor Duffy Cleary, South Carolina Commission on Indigent Defense, Division of Appellate Defense, 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 Ralph E. Hoisington, of Charleston, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Dwayne Gelzer appeals his conviction of possession of marijuana and sentence of one year imprisonment, suspended upon service of four months and two years probation.  He maintains the trial court erred in denying his motion for a directed verdict.  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] Gelzer's appeal and grant counsel's motion to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.
