PER CURIAM.
We affirm pursuant to Rule 220(b), SCACR, and the following authorities: Rhodes v. Benson Chrysler-Plymouth, Inc., 374 S.C. 122, 126, 647 S.E.2d 249, 251 (Ct. App. 2007) ("Generally, the factors our courts consider to determine if a party waived its right to compel arbitration are: (1) whether a substantial length of time transpired between the commencement of the action and the commencement of the motion to compel arbitration; (2) whether the party requesting arbitration engaged in extensive discovery before moving to compel arbitration; and (3) whether the non-moving party was prejudiced by the delay in seeking arbitration."); Davis v. KB Home of S.C., Inc., 394 S.C. 116, 132, 713 S.E.2d 799, 807 (Ct. App. 2011) ("No other South Carolina case has found that a party did not waive their rights to compel arbitration after a year and a half of litigation."); Rhodes, 374 S.C. at 127, 647 S.E.2d at 251 ("To ascertain whether the non-moving party was prejudiced, our courts often examine whether the party requesting arbitration took advantage of the judicial system by engaging in discovery.").
