Appeal From Charleston County

 R. Markley Dennis, Jr., Circuit Court
Judge

Unpublished Opinion No.  2010-UP-128

Submitted January 4, 2010 – Filed February
17, 2010

APPEAL DISMISSED

Appellate Defender Robert M. Pachak, of
Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief
Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General
Salley W. Elliott, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Scarlett Anne Wilson, of
Charleston, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Gwenetta Alease Duckett appeals her guilty
pleas for first-degree burglary, involuntary manslaughter, and grand larceny, arguing the trial court erred in accepting her guilty
pleas because her pleas did not comply with the mandates set forth in Boykin
v. Alabama, 395 U.S. 238 (1969).  After a thorough review of the record and counsel's
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 Duckett's
appeal and grant counsel's motion to be relieved.[1]

APPEAL DISMISSED. 

WILLIAMS, PIEPER, and
LOCKEMY, JJ., concur.

[1] We decide this case without oral argument pursuant to
Rule 215, SCACR.
