APPEAL DISMISSED
Assistant Appellate Defender Aileen P. Clare, of Columbia; for Appellant.
Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster; Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh; Assistant Deputy Attorney General Charles H. Richardson, of Columbia; Solicitor Thomas E. Pope, of York; for Respondent.
PER CURIAM: James Burton Medford appeals from his guilty plea to two
counts of second-degree burglary, three counts of malicious injury to personal
property, and two counts of petit larceny. Medford contends the term of his
sentence was grossly disproportionate to the sentences his co-defendants received
and thereby violated the Eighth Amendments prohibition against cruel and unusual
punishment. 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 [1] Medfords appeal and grant counsels motion to be relieved.
APPEAL DISMISSED.
HEARN, C.J., CURETON and GOOLSBY, JJ., concur.
[1] We decide this case without oral argument pursuant to Rule 215, SCACR.
