In The Interest of Corey C., A Juvenile Under The Age Of Seventeen, Appellant.

Appeal From Darlington County
Jamie Lee Murdock, Jr., Family Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2010-UP-451
Submitted October 1, 2010 Filed October 19, 2010   

APPEAL DISMISSED

Appellate Defender Robert M. Pachak, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, and Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, all of Columbia; and Solicitor William Benjamin Rogers, Jr., of Bennettsville, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Corey C. appeals his conviction for assault with intent to commit criminal sexual conduct and two counts of malicious injury to personal property.  On appeal, Corey C. argues the trial court erred by refusing to grant a directed verdict because the State failed to allege the degree of the criminal sexual conduct charge.  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] Corey C.'s appeal and grant counsel's petition to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.

SHORT, THOMAS, and LOCKEMY, JJ., concur.

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