APPEAL DISMISSED
Assistant Appellate Defender Aileen P. Clare, Office of Appellate Defense, of Columbia, for Appellant.
Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott; and Solicitor Warren Blair Giese, all of Columbia, for Respondent.
PER CURIAM: Jerry Lewis Canty appeals his plea of guilty but mentally ill to simple assault and battery and second-degree burglary, arguing the circuit court erred in accepting his plea because he was not mentally competent. Canty filed a separate pro se brief, raising several issues concerning the strength and propriety of the States case against him which we deem waived by his entry of a guilty plea. After a thorough review of the record, counsels brief, and Cantys pro se 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 Cantys appeal under Rule 220(b)(2), SCACR, and grant counsels motion to be relieved. [1]
APPEAL DISMISSED.
HEARN, C.J., KITTREDGE and WILLIAMS, JJ., concur.
[1] We decide this case without oral argument pursuant to Rule 215, SCACR.
