PER CURIAM.
AFFIRMED. See Applegate v. Barnett Bank of Tallahassee, 377 So.2d 1150, 1152 (Fla. 1979) (holding that on appeal, the decision of the lower tribunal "has the presumption of correctness," the appellant bears the burden "to demonstrate error," and "the lack of a trial transcript or a proper substitute" forecloses reversal); see also Lafaille v. Lafaille, 837 So.2d 601, 604 (Fla. 1st DCA 2003) (explaining that a lower tribunal's findings and final judgment "cannot be disturbed absent a record demonstrating reversible error," and that the appellant has the burden to present the reviewing court "with an adequate record to support his appeal"); Moore v. Moore, 512 So.2d 1141, 1141 (Fla. 1st DCA 1987) (affirming child support determination because the record did not "contain a transcript of the hearing resulting in the order appealed" nor a statement of evidence or proceedings pursuant to Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.200(b)).
