APPEAL DISMISSED
Chief Attorney Joseph L. Savitz, III, 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: Robert B. Lasenby, Jr. pled guilty to assault with intent to kill (AWIK) for which he received seven years jail time. Lasenby argues the trial judge improperly accepted his plea because the State's evidence did not establish the requisite mental state for AWIK. Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), counsel attached a petition to be relieved, stating he reviewed the record and concluded this appeal lacks merit. 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 Lasenby's appeal and grant counsel's motion to be relieved.[1]
APPEAL DISMISSED.
HEARN, C.J., KITTREDGE and THOMAS, JJ., concur.
[1] We decide this case without oral argument pursuant to Rule 215, SCACR.
