THE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA In The Court of Appeals The State, Respondent, v. Antonio Gordon, Appellant.
Appellate Case No. 2021-001280
Appeal From York County William A. McKinnon, Circuit Court Judge
Unpublished Opinion No. 2024-UP-239 Submitted June 1, 2024 – Filed July 3, 2024
AFFIRMED
Antonio Gordon, pro se.
Attorney General Alan McCrory Wilson and Senior Assistant Attorney General Mark Reynolds Farthing, both of Columbia; and Solicitor Kevin Scott Brackett, of York, all for Respondent.
PER CURIAM: Antonio Gordon appeals the denial of his motion to vacate his convictions and sentences. On appeal, Gordon argues the circuit court erred by (1) finding the general sessions court had jurisdiction to hear his guilty plea when he was a juvenile at the time of the offenses and should have been adjudicated in family court; and (2) not making a finding regarding the constitutionality of section 20-7-6605 of the South Carolina Code (Supp. 1998). We affirm pursuant to Rule 220(b), SCACR, and the following authorities: Rule 29(a), SCRCrimP ("Except for motions for new trials based on after-discovered evidence, post-trial motions shall be made within ten (10) days after the imposition of the sentence."); State v. Warren, 392 S.C. 235, 239, 708 S.E.2d 234, 236 (Ct. App. 2011) ("The court does not retain authority to entertain a motion which is not made within ten days of sentencing."); Gantt v. Selph, 423 S.C. 333, 338, 814 S.E.2d 523, 525-26 (2018) ("Lack of subject matter jurisdiction may be raised at any time, and may be raised for the first time on appeal."); State v. Rice, 401 S.C. 330, 333, 737 S.E.2d 485, 486 (2013) (agreeing with the Iowa Supreme Court's reasoning that "an erroneous order transferring a juvenile to general sessions court would be a judicial error— not a jurisdictional error").
AFFIRMED. 1 THOMAS, MCDONALD, and VERDIN, JJ., concur.
We decide this case without oral argument pursuant to Rule 215, SCACR.
