Wilke, 330 S.C. 71, 76, 497 S.E.2d 731, 733 (1998) ("It is axiomatic that an issue cannot be raised for the first time on appeal, but must have been raised to and ruled upon by the trial [court] to be preserved for appellate review."); Regions Bank v. Owens, 402 S.C. 642, 647, 741 S.E.2d 51, 54 (Ct. App. 2013) (holding an argument for setting aside an entry of default was unpreserved for appellate review because the movant failed to argue the issue to the Master-in-Equity); Noisette v. Ismail, 304 S.C. 56, 58, 403 S.E.2d 122, 124 (1991) (holding that when a trial court does not explicitly rule on an argument raised and appellant makes no Rule 59(e), SCRCP, motion to obtain a ruling, the appellate court may not address the issue). AFFIRMED. SHORT, WILLIAMS, and KONDUROS, JJ., concur.
We decide this case without oral argument pursuant to Rule 215, SCACR. --------
