PER CURIAM: Loudin Rohr appeals his convictions for assault and battery of a
high and aggravated nature and criminal domestic violence of a high and
aggravated nature, arguing the trial judge erred in allowing the State to
inappropriately bolster the testimony of a child witness. We affirm pursuant to
Rule 220(b), SCACR, and the following authorities: State v. Kromah, 401 S.C.
340, 362, 737 S.E.2d 490, 501 (2013) (finding error in the admission of improper
corroboration testimony may be harmless where there is evidence other than the
corroborated testimony, and the error "could not reasonably have affected the
result of the trial"); State v. Black, 400 S.C. 10, 27, 732 S.E.2d 880, 890 (2012)
("An appellate court generally will decline to set aside a conviction due to
insubstantial errors not affecting the result." (citations omitted)).
AFFIRMED.
SHORT, THOMAS, and PIEPER, JJ., concur.
