Appellate Case No. 2018-001886
Appeal From Greenville County Perry H. Gravely, Circuit Court Judge
Unpublished Opinion No. 2021-UP-001 Submitted November 1, 2020 – Filed January 6, 2021
AFFIRMED
Drake Malpass, of Simpsonville, pro se.
Nick Burns, of Greenville, pro se.
PER CURIAM: Drake Malpass appeals a circuit court order affirming the magistrate court's order dismissing his complaint against Nick Burns. Because Malpass has failed to provide a sufficient record upon which this court can make a decision, we affirm pursuant to Rule 220(b), SCACR, and the following authorities: Rule 210(h), SCACR ("[T]he appellate court will not consider any fact which does not appear in the Record on Appeal."); 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."); Germain v. Nichol, 278 S.C. 508, 509, 299 S.E.2d 335, 335 (1983) ("Appellant has the burden of providing [an appellate court] with a sufficient record upon which [the appellate court] can make its decision."); id. (affirming the trial court's judgment when the appellant failed to provide "any of the trial testimony" to support his argument that the evidence did not justify the damages award); Price v. Pickens Cnty., 308 S.C. 64, 67, 416 S.E.2d 666, 668 (Ct. App. 1992) (affirming an appeal from the circuit court in which the appellant failed to provide "the complete order of the magistrate").1
