An Appeal from the Circuit Court for Miami-Dade County, Dennis J. Murphy, Judge.
Carlos J. Martinez, Public Defender, and David S. Molansky, Assistant Public Defender, for appellant.
Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, and Linda Katz, Assistant Attorney General, for appellee. Before SUAREZ, LAGOA, and LOGUE, JJ.
SUAREZ, J.
Defendant Nakavius Paul appeals his conviction and sentence. We affirm finding that there is no merit to the first issue raised on appeal and as to the second issue we find that none of the unobjected-to comments made in closing argument by the prosecution rise to the level of fundamental error. Merck v. State, 975 So. 2d 1054, 1061 (Fla. 2007) ("Unobjected-to comments are grounds for reversal only if they rise to the level of fundamental error.").
Affirmed.
