Jorge Perez,

Appellant,

vs.

The State of Florida,

Appellee.

An Appeal under Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.141(b)(2) from the Circuit Court for Miami-Dade County, Carlos H. Gamez, Judge.

Jorge Perez, in proper person.

James Uthmeier, Attorney General, and Sandra Lipman, Assistant Attorney General, for appellee.

Before LOGUE, LINDSEY, and BOKOR, JJ.

PER CURIAM.

Jorge Perez, after four previous appeals, once again appeals the denial of a rule 3.800(a) motion, this time, under Erlinger v. United States, 144 S. Ct. 1840 (2024). We affirm because the Florida Supreme Court has ruled Erlinger claims do not apply retroactively. See Wainwright v. State, 411 So. 3d 392, 399 (Fla. 2025), cert. denied sub nom., Wainwright v. Florida, No. 24-7365, 2025 WL 1621505 (U.S. June 9, 2025).

Affirmed.
