With no explanation, chose the best option from "A", "B", "C" or "D". to the denial of the motion to alter or amend, “we will not allow the appellant’s reference to raising the issue in a post-trial motion to serve as a smokescreen obscuring the earlier and fatal non-preservation.” Id. at 484, 798 A.2d 1195. In the case mb judice, Cave declared in his brief that this appeal “challenges only the order to award [ ] Elliott back pay and benefits.” Consequently, because Cave did not raise the issue of the authority of the circuit court to award back pay and benefits at the trial that resulted in such award, the issue has not been preserved for appellate review, notwithstanding Cave’s subsequent raising of the issue in his Motion for Reconsideration.
