PER CURIAM: �Benjamin Garrick appeals his convictions for possession with intent to distribute cocaine and possession with intent to distribute cocaine within the proximity of a school and concurrent sixteen and five year sentences, respectively.� Garrick argues the trial court erred in denying his motion for a mistrial.� We affirm[1] pursuant to Rule 220(b)(1), SCACR, and the following authorities:� State v. White, 371 S.C. 439, 444, 639 S.E.2d 160, 163 (Ct. App. 2006) ("'The granting of a motion for a mistrial is an extreme measure which should be taken only where an incident is so grevious that prejudicial effect can be removed in no other way.'") (internal citations omitted); State v. Smith, 290 S.C. 393, 395, 350 S.E.2d 923, 924 (1986) (holding great care should be exercised when issuing a curative instruction, and "[t]he jury should be specifically instructed to disregard the evidence, and not to consider it for any purpose during deliberations").
