APPEAL DISMISSED
Assistant Appellate Defender Aileen P. Clare, of Columbia, for Appellant.
Legal Director Teresa A. Knox, Legal Counsel J. Benjamin Aplin, and Legal Counsel Tommy Evans, Jr., all of Columbia, for Respondent.
PER CURIAM: John Mabry appeals the circuit courts revocation of his probation. Mabrys counsel contends the circuit court lacked subject-matter jurisdiction to revoke his probationary sentence. Mabry argues the arrest warrant against him was improper due to the court exceeding a statutory five-year limitation on length of probation.[1] We hold the circuit court properly tolled Mabrys probationary sentence while Mabry absconded from supervision, the arrest warrant was lawful, and the circuit court had subject-matter jurisdiction to revoke his probation. Accordingly, 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 Mabrys appeal and grant counsels motion to be relieved.
APPEAL DISMISSED.[2]
GOOLSBY, BEATTY, and SHORT, JJ., concur.
[1] S.C. Code Ann. § 24-21-440 (Supp. 2004) provides as follows: The period of probation of suspension of sentence shall not exceed a period of five years and shall be determined by the judge of the court and may be continued or extended within the above limit.
[2] We decide this case without oral argument pursuant to Rule 215, SCACR.
