PER CURIAM.

Andy Thomas, Public Defender, and Barbara J. Busharis, Assistant Public Defender, Tallahassee, for Appellant.

Ashley Moody, Attorney General, and Benjamin L. Hoffman, Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee.

Per Curiam.

AFFIRMED . See Kline v. State , 274 So.3d 525, 2019 WL 2399700 (Fla. 1st DCA 2019) (holding that where it is unclear whether the trial court used the correct standard to deny a motion for new trial, "the potential that the trial court erred does not reach the level of fundamental error").

Ray, C.J., and Rowe, J., concur; Osterhaus, J., dissents with opinion.

Osterhaus, J., dissenting.

I would reverse and remand for further consideration. See Palmer v. State , 196 So. 3d 1289 (Fla. 1st DCA 2016).
