In The Court of Appeals

The State, Respondent,

v.

Roscoe Gregg, Appellant.

Appeal From Marion County

Howard P. King, Circuit Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2011-UP-204

Submitted April 1, 2011 – Filed May 4,
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 Deborah R. J. Shupe, all of Columbia; and
Solicitor Edgar Lewis Clements, III, of Florence, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Roscoe Gregg pled guilty to possession of
cocaine, first offense.  On appeal, Gregg argues the trial court erred in
accepting his guilty plea because no evidence was presented to prove the white
substance was cocaine. We
affirm[1] pursuant to Rule 220(b)(1), SCACR, and
the following authorities: State v.
Passaro,  350 S.C. 499, 505, 567 S.E.2d 862, 866 (2002)
("[A] guilty plea generally constitutes a waiver of non-jurisdictional
defects and claims of violations of constitutional rights."); State v.
Lopez, 352 S.C. 373, 378, 574 S.E.2d 210, 213 (Ct. App. 2002) (finding
an issue must be raised to and ruled upon by the trial court in order to be
considered on appeal).

AFFIRMED.

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

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