APPEAL DISMISSED
Appellate Defender Joseph L. Savitz, III, 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 Harold W. Gowdy, III, of Spartanburg, for Respondent.
PER CURIAM: �Billy Wayne Ruppe pled no contest to trafficking in methamphetamine, second offense, ten to twenty eight grams, and received a negotiated sentence of five years.� Ruppe argues the trial court erred by accepting his guilty plea because the probable cause for issuing the search warrant had grown stale by the time the warrant was issued.� 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 �Ruppe�s appeal and grant counsel�s motion to be relieved. [1]
APPEAL DISMISSED.�
KONDUROS, J., CURETON, and GOOLSBY, A.J.J., concur.
