Austin Dakota Freeman, Lake City, pro se.

Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Robin A. Compton, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee.

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

AFFIRMED. Limited, boilerplate motions for judgment of acquittal, which are of a technical and pro-forma nature, are inadequate to preserve a sufficiency of evidence claim for appellate review. Brooks v. State, 762 So.2d 879, 895 (Fla.2000). Relief, if any, must come in a timely and sufficiently pled motion for postconviction relief pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850.

ORFINGER, EVANDER and WALLIS, JJ., concur.
