D'el Jvon Grant, Appellant.

Appeal From Charleston County
Howard P. King, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No.  2010-UP-388
Submitted August 2, 2010 Filed August 25, 2010

APPEAL DISMISSED

Chief Appellate Defender Robert M. Dudek, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, and Assistant Deputy Attorney General Donald J. Zelenka, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Scarlett Anne Wilson, of Charleston, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:   D'el Jvon Grant appeals his two murder convictions.  Grant argues the trial court erred in allowing a witness to testify that he promised to tell the truth as a part of his agreement with the State because it impermissibly bolstered his credibility.  Grant also filed a pro se brief, arguing the trial court erred in failing to grant his motion for a directed verdict.  After a thorough review of the record, counsel's brief, and Grant'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] Grant's appeal and grant counsel's petition to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.

FEW, C.J., KONDUROS and LOCKEMY, JJ., concur. 

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