Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, Assistant Attorney General Julie M. Thames, all of Columbia; for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Donald Ray Perry appeals his sentence for voluntary manslaughter, arguing it was constitutionally disproportionate.  We affirm Perry’s sentence pursuant to Rule 220(b)(2), SCACR, and the following authorities:  State v. Johnston, 333 S.C. 459, 462, 510 S.E.2d 423, 425 (1999) (“[T]his Court has consistently held that a challenge to sentencing must be raised at trial, or the issue will not be preserved for appellate review.”); State v. Conally, 227 S.C. 507, 510, 88 S.E.2d 591, 593 (1955) (“This Court has no jurisdiction to disturb, because of alleged excessiveness, a sentence which is within the limits prescribed by statute, unless:  (a) the statute itself violates the constitutional injunction, [S.C. Const. art. I, § 15], against cruel and unusual punishment, or (b) the sentence is the result of partiality, prejudice, oppression, or corrupt motive.”); State v. Kimbrough, 212 S.C. 348, 357, 46 S.E.2d 273, 277 (1948) (“[O]nly under rare and unusual circumstances will [an appellate court] interfere with the discretion of the trial judge in the imposition of a sentence.”).[1]

AFFIRMED.

HEARN, C.J., KITTREDGE and THOMAS, JJ., concur.

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