AFFIRMED


Charles Griggs, of Acworth, Georgia, pro se.
Derek Dean, of Simons & Dean, of Charleston, for Respondent.
PER CURIAM : Charles Griggs appeals the circuit court's dismissal of his appeal from the magistrate court for failure to timely file an appeal. We affirm pursuant to Rule 220(b), SCACR, and the following authorities: 1. As to whether the circuit court properly dismissed Griggs's appeal: S.C. Code Ann. § 18-7-20 (Supp. 2011) ("The appellant, within thirty days after written notice of judgment has been given him or his attorney by the magistrate . . . except when the judgment is announced at the trial in the presence of the appellant or his attorney then no written notice is necessary, shall serve a notice of appeal, stating the grounds upon which the appeal is founded."). 2. As to Griggs's remaining arguments: Wilder Corp. v. Wilke, 330 S.C. 71, 76, 497 S.E.2d 731, 733 (1998) ("It is axiomatic that an issue cannot be raised for the first time on appeal, but must have been raised to and ruled upon by the [circuit court] to be preserved for appellate review."). AFFIRMED.

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

SHORT, KONDUROS, and LOCKEMY, JJ., concur.
