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

PER CURIAM:  Thomas Crocker appeals his convictions and sentences for first degree criminal sexual conduct, first-degree burglary, and kidnapping.  Crocker argues the trial court erred in denying his motion for a directed verdict.  After a thorough review of the record, counsel's brief, and Crocker'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 the appeal and grant counsel's motion to be relieved.[1]

APPEAL DISMISSED.
