Appeal From York County Lee S. Alford, Circuit Court Judge.
Appellate Defender Elizabeth Franklin-Best, of Columbia; and Donell Maurice Hutchinson, pro se, for Appellant.
Attorney General Alan Wilson, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, and Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Kevin S. Brackett, of York, for Respondent.
PER CURIAM
Donell Maurice Hutchinson appeals his convictions for trafficking in cocaine and possession of crack cocaine, arguing the trial court erred in refusing to grant a mistrial after the State improperly bolstered its witnesses. Hutchinson also filed a pro se brief. After a thorough review of the record and all briefs 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 counsel's motion to be relieved.
We decide this case without oral argument pursuant to Rule 215, SCACR.
APPEAL DISMISSED.
FEW, C.J., and HUFF and SHORT, JJ., concur.
