PER CURIAM.

Because the defendant withdrew his request to discharge court-appointed counsel, the trial court was not required to continue its Nelson inquiry.¹ See Lowe v. State, 650 So.2d 969, 975 (Fla. 1994), cert. denied, 516 U.S. 887 (1995). Accordingly, we affirm the defendant's convictions and sentences.
