1Opinion of the Court
CHAPMAN, Circuit Judge:
The plaintiff/appellant, Diane Maybin, appeals the dismissal of her suit because of improper service of process. The only issue presented is whether defendants waived their objection to personal jurisdiction by making a “voluntary appearance” before the district court, as that term is used in Rule 4(d) of the South Carolina Rules of Civil Procedure. We find that the defendants did not make such an appearance nor did they waive their objection to personal jurisdiction, and we affirm the lower court’s dismissal of this case.
