Appellate Defender M. Celia Robinson, of Columbia.

Deputy Director for Legal Services Teresa A. Knox, Legal Counsel Tommy Evans, Jr., Legal Counsel J. Benjamin Aplin, all of Columbia, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Kenneth M. Tucker appeals the revocation of his probation, arguing the trial court erred by revoking his probation without making a finding that his failure to pay fees was willful.  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 Tucker’s appeal and grant counsel’s motion to be relieved.[1]

APPEAL DISMISSED.
