Deputy Chief Appellate Defender Wanda Carter, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, of Columbia; and Solicitor John Gregory Hembree, of Conway, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Larry Cliff appeals his guilty plea and sentence for second-degree-burglary, arguing the plea court failed to advise him he would be waiving his right to confront his accusers.  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 the appeal and grant counsel's motion to be relieved.[1]

APPEAL DISMISSED.

HEARN, C.J., CURETON, A.J., and GOOLSBY, A.J., concur.
