May 10, 1995.
An appeal from the Circuit Court of Dade County; Robbie M. Barr, Judge.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., and Joni Braunstein, Asst. Atty. Gen., for appellee.
Before HUBBART, NESBITT and GODERICH, JJ.
This is an appeal from a judgment of conviction and sentence for manslaughter arising from the defendant Ricardo Samitier's culpably negligent medical treatment in performing a plastic surgery operation on the deceased; the judgment and sentence were entered below based on an adverse jury verdict. We reject the defendant's sole point on appeal: that the trial court erred in refusing to give three requested jury instructions — based on a holding that the requested charges were not supported by any competent evidence adduced at trial and were otherwise confusing and misleading. See Butler v. State, 493 So.2d 451, 452 (Fla. 1986); Wilson v. State, 537 So.2d 176, 177 (Fla. 3d DCA 1989); Giordano v. Ramirez, 503 So.2d 947, 950 (Fla. 3d DCA 1987).
The final judgment of conviction and sentence under review are, therefore, in all respects,
Affirmed.
