The State, Respondent,

v.

Christopher S. McGuire, Appellant.

Appeal From Greenwood County

Wyatt T. Saunders, Jr, Circuit Court
Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2010-UP-293

Submitted May 3, 2010 – Filed May 27, 2010   

AFFIRMED

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

Assistant Chief Legal Counsel J. Benjamin
Aplin, of Columbia, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  The circuit court revoked Christopher S. McGuire's probation finding he failed
to follow the instructions of his probation agent and failed to attended sex
offender counseling.  McGuire appeals the revocation of his probation, arguing
the circuit court erred in revoking his probation without finding his failure
to attend sex offender counseling was willful.  We affirm[1] pursuant to Rule 220(b)(1), SCACR, and the following authority:  State v. Hicks,
Op. No. 26812 (S.C. Sup. Ct. filed May 3, 2010) (Shearouse Adv. Sh. No. 17 at
13) (holding when probation is revoked based upon more than one violation, an
appellate court must affirm unless all grounds for revocation are challenged).

AFFIRMED.

FEW, C.J., THOMAS and
PIEPER, JJ., concur. 

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