Franklin C. Reaves, pro se Appellant.

Willie D. Reaves, pro se Respondent.

PER CURIAM:� Franklin Reeves appeals from the family court�s order finding him in contempt for his willful violation of the court�s prior order to pay alimony to Willie Reaves.� We affirm pursuant to Rule 220(b), SCACR, and the following authorities: S.C Code Ann. � 63-3-620 (Supp. 2008) (�An adult who willfully violates, neglects, or refuses to obey or perform a lawful order of the court . . . may be proceeded against for contempt of court.�); Frye v. Frye, 323 S.C. 72, 75-76, 448 S.E.2d 586, 588 (Ct. App. 1994) (citing Jordan v. Harrison, 303 S.C. 522, 402 S.E.2d 188 (Ct. App. 1991)) (�[W]here one held in contempt for violation of a court order complies with the order, his compliance renders the issue of contempt moot and precludes appellate review of the contempt proceeding.�).

AFFIRMED. [1]
