PER CURIAM: Billy Shane Tucker appeals his convictions for murder, assault and battery with intent to kill, and possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime, for which Tucker received consecutive sentences of life imprisonment, twenty years, and five years, respectively. Tucker argues the trial court lacked subject matter jurisdiction to try him because the indictment purported to have been presented to the court of general sessions on a date the court did not convene. After a thorough review of the record and counsels 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 counsels motion to be relieved.[1]
APPEAL DISMISSED.
WILLIAMS, PIEPER, and GEATHERS, JJ., concur.
[1] We decide this case without oral argument pursuant to Rule 215, SCACR.
