APPEAL DISMISSED

Assistant Appellate Defender Aileen P. Clare, Office of Appellate Defense, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, and Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliot, Office of the Attorney General, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Harold W. Gowdy, III, of Spartanburg, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Timothy Wayne Dezern appeals his conviction for first-degree burglary and sentence of fifteen years imprisonment, arguing the trial court erred in failing to grant a directed verdict for him.  He contends the State presented insufficient evidence of his guilt.  After a thorough review of the record, counsel's brief, and Dezern's pro se 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] Dezern's appeal and grant counsel's motion to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.
