Appeal From York County John C. Hayes, III, Circuit Court Judge.
Appellate Defender Elizabeth A. Franklin-Best, of Columbia, for Appellant.
J. Benjamin Aplin, of Columbia, for Respondent.
PER CURIAM
Frank Anthony Culp appeals the circuit court's order revoking his probation and reinstating in full the original suspended sentences. He argues the circuit court abused its discretion because a lesser sentence would have been suitable given the nature of his violation. We affirm pursuant to Rule 220(b)(1), SCACR, and the following authorities: State v. Lee, 350 S.C. 125, 130, 564 S.E.2d 372, 375 (Ct. App. 2002) ("An issue must be raised to and ruled upon by the [circuit court] to be preserved for appellate review."); State v. Shumate, 276 S.C. 46, 46-47, 275 S.E.2d 288, 288 (1981) (holding not preserved for review an appellant's challenge of the circuit court's authority "to revoke in the manner prescribed [his] probationary sentence previously imposed and admittedly violated" where appellant did not "object to or seek modification of the revocation sentence in the [circuit] court").
We decide this case without oral argument pursuant to Rule 215, SCACR.
AFFIRMED.
SHORT, WILLIAMS, and GEATHERS, JJ., concur.
