In The Court of Appeals

Henry Martin, Appellant,

v.

South Carolina Department
of Corrections, Respondent.

Appeal from the Administrative Law Court

 John D. McLeod, Administrative Law Court Judge

Unpublished Opinion No. 2011-UP-575

Submitted December 1, 2011 – Filed
December 20, 2011   

AFFIRMED

Henry W. Martin, Jr., pro se.

Christopher D. Florian, of Columbia, for
Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Henry
W. Martin, Jr. appeals the Administrative Law Court's (ALC) dismissal of his
administrative appeal from the Department of Corrections.  He argues the ALC
erred in dismissing his grievance regarding access to the prison law library
for photocopies of caselaw.[1] 
We affirm[2] pursuant to Rule 220(b)(1), SCACR, and the following authority: Medlock v.
One 1985 Jeep Cherokee VIN 1JCWB7828FT129001, 322 S.C. 127, 132, 470 S.E.2d
373, 376 (1996) ("The appellant has the burden of providing this court
with a sufficient record upon which to make a decision.").

AFFIRMED.

HUFF, PIEPER, and LOCKEMY, JJ., concur.

[1] Martin's remaining arguments are unpreserved for our
review because they were never ruled on by the ALC.  Al-Shabazz v. State,
338 S.C. 354, 379, 527 S.E.2d 742, 755 (2000) ("[I]ssues or arguments that
were not raised to and ruled on by the [ALC] ordinarily are not preserved for
review.").

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