AFFIRMED


Heath Preston Taylor, of West Columbia, for Appellant.

J. Benjamin Aplin, of Columbia, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Ronald Causey appeals the circuit court's order revoking his probation for two years and tolling his probation while he is incarcerated.  We affirm[1] pursuant to Rule 220(b)(1), SCACR, and the following authorities:

1.  As to whether the circuit court erred in revoking Causey's probation: State v. Williamson, 356 S.C. 507, 510, 589 S.E.2d 787, 788 (Ct. App. 2003) ("[T]he authority of the [circuit] court to revoke [probation] may not be capriciously or arbitrarily exercised, but should always be predicated upon an evidentiary showing of fact tending to establish violation of the conditions.").

2.  As to whether the circuit court erred in tolling his probation during his incarceration: State v. Bryant, 383 S.C. 410, 418, 680 S.E.2d 11, 15 (Ct. App. 2009) (holding that an issue not raised to the circuit court revoking probation was not preserved for review).

AFFIRMED.

FEW, C.J., KONDUROS, J., and CURETON, A.J., concur.


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