Respondents Gunter's Island Hunting Club, by W.I. Shelley, President, and Odell Hughes, Secretary, (the Hunting Club) brought this action against Hucks, et al., (Hucks) seeking injunctive relief from trespassing and interfering with the Hunting Club's quiet enjoyment of certain leased property. Hucks' counterclaim alleges, inter alia, that the roads to the lakes on the subject property are public roads and the lakes are public lakes. The case was referred to the Horry County Master who made a factual finding that the Hunting Club holds a hunting and fishing leasehold interest in the property and that the roads and lakes are public property; the Master recommended that Hucks be enjoined from hunting on the leased premises during the term of the lease and from interfering with the Hunting Club's enjoyment of their leasehold interest in the land and that the roads and lakes be declared public property. The Hunting Club excepted to the Master's Report. The trial judge overruled the Master's Report and ordered, inter alia, that Hucks be enjoined from interfering with the Hunting Club's quiet enjoyment of the leased premises; the appealed Order also overruled the Master's Report as it related to the roads and lakes because the owners of the subject property and the state of South Carolina were not joined as parties to the action.
We agree and affirm.
On appeal, Hucks present for decision six questions, four of which are fact related. The Transcript of Record contains no testimony, nor does it contain copies of the pertinent leases. "The burden is on an appellant to present sufficient record from which this Court can determine whether the lower court erred in the respects charged; and where, as here, the exceptions require consideration of the trial evidence, which is not included in the record, such exceptions will not be considered." Wilson v. American Casualty Company, 252 S.C. 393, 166 S.E.2d 797, 798 (1969). We therefore decline to consider the fact related questions.
We first consider Hucks' contention that the trial court erred in dismissing their counterclaim because proper indispensable parties were not before the court. We reject this...
