Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster, Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, Assistant Deputy Attorney General Salley W. Elliott, and Assistant Attorney General Deborah R. J. Shupe , all of Columbia; and Solicitor Harold W. Gowdy, III, of Spartanburg, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM: Ricky Brannon appeals his convictions for burglary in the first degree and grand larceny, arguing the trial court erred in admitting the testimony of a footprint analysis expert.  We affirm[1] pursuant to Rule 220(b), SCACR, and the following authorities: State v. Schumpert, 312 S.C. 502, 507, 435 S.E.2d 859, 862 (1993) ("Unless an objection is made at the time the evidence is offered and a final ruling made, the issue is not preserved for review."); State v. Wood, 362 S.C. 520, 526, 608 S.E.2d 435, 438 (Ct. App. 2004) (holding a party opposing the admission of evidence must object to the evidence when it is introduced because "a motion in limine is not a final determination"), cert. denied (Aug. 15, 2006); State v. Burton, 326 S.C. 605, 611, 486 S.E.2d 762, 765 (Ct. App. 1997) ("Unless an objection is made at the time the evidence is offered and a final ruling made, the issue is not preserved for review.").

AFFIRMED.
