Appeal From Kershaw County
James R. Barber, Circuit Court Judge
Unpublished Opinion No. 2013-UP-269
Submitted May 1, 2013 – Filed June 19, 2013
APPEAL DISMISSED
Appellate Defender Robert M. Pachak, of Columbia; and
Vincent A. Torress, pro se, for Petitioner.
Attorney General Alan McCrory Wilson, Chief Deputy
Attorney General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy
Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, and Assistant
Attorney General Brian T. Petrano, all of Columbia, for
Respondent.
PER CURIAM: Petitioner seeks a writ of certiorari from the dismissal of his
application for post-conviction relief (PCR).
Because there is sufficient evidence to support the PCR judge's finding that
Petitioner did not knowingly and intelligently waive his right to a direct appeal, we
grant the petition for writ of certiorari and proceed with a review of the direct
appeal issue pursuant to Davis v. State, 288 S.C. 290, 342 S.E.2d 60 (1986).
Petitioner appeals the revocation of his probation. 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 Petitioner's
appeal and grant counsel's motion to be relieved.
APPEAL DISMISSED.1
