Timothy Lee Griffith, of Timothy L. Griffith, Attorney at Law, of Sumter; and Chief Appellate Defender Robert Michael Dudek, of Columbia, both for Appellant.

PER CURIAM: Cynthia Mansell Greenfield appeals her conviction and sentence for trafficking methamphetamine in the amount of twenty-eight grams or more but less than one hundred grams. She contends the trial court erred in (1) qualifying Captain Chad Brooks as an expert in clandestine methamphetamine manufacturing and (2) failing to grant her motion for a directed verdict. We affirm pursuant to Rule 220(b), SCACR, for the reasons expressed in our opinion affirming the appeal of Greenfield's codefendant, Michael Levant Mealor. See State v. Mealor, Op. No. 5590 (S.C. Ct. App. filed August 15, 2018).

AFFIRMED.
