GUNTHER, Judge, dissenting.

I respectfully dissent. In my view the trial court reversibly erred in not allowing defense counsel to cross-examine the victim regarding whether he had considered seeking money damages from this incident. See Watts v. State, 450 So.2d 265 (Fla. 2d DCA 1984); Cox v. State, 441 So.2d 1169 (Fla. 4th DCA 1983).
