UNPUBLISHED OPINION
Submitted July 2, 2012
Appeal From Charleston County Roger M. Young, Circuit Court Judge
Appellate Defender Susan Barber Hackett and Appellate Defender Tristan M. Shaffer, both of Columbia, for Appellant.
Attorney General Alan Wilson, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, Senior Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, and Assistant Attorney General Christina J. Catoe, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Scarlett A. Wilson, of Charleston, for Respondent.
PER CURIAM:
Lamar Jones appeals his convictions of second-degree burglary and possession of tools of crime, arguing the plea court erred in denying his motion to withdraw his guilty plea because the plea was not made knowingly and voluntarily. We affirm pursuant to Rule 220(b), SCACR, and the following authorities: State v. Geer, 391 S.C. 179, 193, 705 S.E.2d 441, 448 (Ct. App. 2010) ("It is well settled that an issue may not be raised for the first time in a post-trial motion."); State v. McKinney, 278 S.C. 107, 108, 292 S.E.2d 598, 599 (1982) ("Absent timely objection at a plea proceeding, the unknowing and involuntary nature of a guilty plea can only be attacked through the more appropriate channel of Post-Conviction Relief.").
We decide this case without oral argument pursuant to Rule 215, SCACR.
AFFIRMED.
