PER CURIAM.
AFFIRMED. See D.R. v. Dep’t of Child. & Fams., 236 So. 3d 1175, 1177 (Fla. 1st DCA 2018) (“Even in a termination of parental rights proceeding, the lack of a transcript mandates affirmance unless fundamental error appears on the face of the order.”); see also Applegate v. Barnett Bank of Tallahassee, 377 So. 2d 1150, 1152 (Fla. 1979) (“Without a record of the trial proceedings, the appellate court can not properly resolve the underlying factual issues so as to conclude that the trial court’s judgment is not supported by the evidence or by an alternative theory. Without knowing the factual context, neither can an appellate court reasonably conclude that the trial judge so misconceived the law as to require reversal.”).
RAY, OSTERHAUS, and NORDBY, JJ., concur.
