THE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA

In The Court of Appeals

The State, Respondent,

v.

Angelo Mayo Sobreo, Appellant.

Appeal From Richland County

Carmen Tevis Mullen, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No.   2011-UP-160

Submitted April 1, 2011 – Filed April 13, 2011

AFFIRMED

Appellate Defender M. Celia Robinson, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Alan Wilson, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, Assistant Attorney
General A. West Lee, and Solicitor Daniel E. Johnson, all of Columbia, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Angelo Mayo Sobreo appeals his plea of guilty but mentally ill for assault and battery with intent to kill.  On appeal, Sobreo argues
the trial court erred in accepting his guilty plea because the plea was involuntary.  We affirm[1] pursuant to
Rule 220(b)(1), SCACR, and the following authorities:  State v. McKinney, 278 S.C. 107, 108, 292 S.E.2d 598, 599 (1982) (finding the
appellant's failure to object to the involuntary nature of a guilty plea at trial precludes consideration of the issue on appeal); In the Interest of Antonio
H., 324 S.C. 120, 122, 477 S.E.2d 713, 714 (1996) ("The proper avenue in which to challenge a guilty plea which is not objected to at the
time of its entry is through post-conviction relief.").  

AFFIRMED.

HUFF, SHORT, and PIEPER, JJ., concur.

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