(emphasis added)); Coward Hund Constr. Co. v. Ball Corp., 336 S.C. 1, 3, 518 S.E.2d 56, 57 (Ct. App. 1999) ("A motion under Rule 59(e) is timely if it is 'served not later than 10 days after receipt of written notice of the entry of the order.'"

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