AFFIRMED


Andrew F. Litvin, of Columbia, for Appellant.

J. Thomas McBratney, III, of Florence, for Respondents.

PER CURIAM: E-Z Out Bail Bonds, Inc. (E-Z Out) appeals the jury's damages award of $220,397.24 to Thomas E. Redmond and Arrow Bail Bonding, Inc. (collectively Arrow Bail Bonding).� On appeal, E-Z Out argues the trial court erred in denying its motions for judgment notwithstanding the verdict (JNOV) and a new trial.� Because E-Z Out did not provide this court with an adequate record to consider these arguments, we affirm[1] pursuant to Rule 220(b)(1), 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."); McCall v. IKON, 380 S.C. 649, 663, 670 S.E.2d 695, 703 (Ct. App. 2008) (finding the appellant "bears the burden of providing this court with a record sufficient to allow appellate review"); In re McCracken, 346 S.C. 87, 93, 551 S.E.2d 235, 238 (2001) ("[O]nly grounds raised in the directed verdict motion may properly be reasserted in the [JNOV] motion. . . ."); Marsh v S.C. Dep't of Highways & Pub. Transp., 298 S.C. 420, 423, 380 S.E.2d 867, 869 (Ct. App. 1989) (holding an alternative motion for new trial that mirrors a JNOV motion is limited to the grounds stated in the motion for directed verdict); Peay v Ross, 292 S.C. 535, 537, 357 S.E.2d 482, 483-84 (Ct. App. 1987) ("[A] motion for a directed verdict is a prerequisite to a motion for a new trial on the ground that the evidence does not support the verdict.").

AFFIRMED.

PIEPER, KONDUROS, and GEATHERS, JJ., concur.

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