Before FERNANDEZ, LINDSEY and GORDO, JJ.
PER CURIAM
Affirmed. See Rowland v. Rowland, 868 So.2d 608, 611 (Fla. 2d DCA 2004) ("We conclude that the Wife's testimony and the production of the Wife's Florida driver's license provided competent, substantial evidence supporting the trial court's findings as to the Wife's residency and the court's jurisdiction, and we affirm."); Jenkins v. Jenkins, 915 So.2d 1248, 1250 (Fla. 4th DCA 2005) ("We agree with the trial court's conclusion that the husband was a resident of Florida. Even though the husband's physical presence in Florida over the year preceding the filing of the petition was de minimis, the trial court correctly determined the 'chief seat of the husband's affairs and interests' remains in Florida, creating presence and the requisite objective intent to be a Florida resident.").
