v.

Michael D. Jackson, Appellant.


Appeal from Richland County
L. Casey Manning, Circuit Court Judge


Unpublished Opinion No.  2011-UP-522 
Submitted November 1, 2011 – Filed December 1, 2011


AFFIRMED


Appellate Defender Elizabeth A. Franklin-Best, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Alan Wilson, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, and Senior Assistant  Attorney General Harold M. Coombs, Jr., all of Columbia; and Solicitor Daniel E. Johnson, of Columbia, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Michael D. Jackson appeals his conviction for armed robbery, arguing the circuit court erred in denying his motion to redact his written statement and by not charging the jury with the lesser-included offense of strong arm robbery.  We affirm[1] pursuant to Rule 220(b)(1), SCACR, and the following authorities:

1.  As to whether the circuit court erred in denying Jackson's motions to redact portions of his written statement:  State v. McWee, 322 S.C. 387, 393, 472 S.E.2d 235, 239 (1996) (holding error without prejudice does not warrant reversal); State v. Mansfield, 343 S.C. 66, 77, 538 S.E.2d 257, 263 (Ct. App. 2000) (holding the admissibility of evidence is within the sound discretion of the circuit court and will not be reversed on appeal absent an abuse of discretion).

2.  As to whether the circuit court erred in refusing to charge the lesser included offense of strong arm robbery:  State v. Rivera, 389 S.C. 399, 404, 699 S.E.2d 157, 159 (2010) ("The law to be charged must be determined from the evidence presented at trial."); State v. Hernandez, 386 S.C. 655, 659, 690 S.E.2d 582, 584 (Ct. App. 2010) (holding the circuit court's refusal to give a requested jury charge must be both erroneous and prejudicial to the defendant to warrant reversal). 

AFFIRMED.

HUFF, PIEPER, and LOCKEMY, JJ., concur.


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