v.

Carnie Norris III, Appellant.

Appeal from Spartanburg County
J. Derham Cole, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2012-UP-226
Submitted April 2, 2012 Filed April 18, 2012   

APPEAL DISMISSED

Appellate Defender Kathrine H. Hudgins, of Columbia, and Carnie Norris III, pro se, for Appellant.

Attorney General Alan Wilson, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, and Senior Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Barry J. Barnette, of Spartanburg, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Carnie Norris III appeals his conviction of armed robbery, arguing the trial court erred in failing to instruct the jury on sections  17-13-10 to -20 of the South Carolina Code (2003), dealing with the right of citizens to make arrests.  Additionally, Norris asserts several pro se arguments.  After a thorough review of the record and all briefs 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] the appeal and grant counsel's motion to be relieved.

APPEAL DISMISSED.

PIEPER, KONDUROS, and GEATHERS, JJ., concur.

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