BURD v. ADAMS (2025)

Appellant raises five issues on appeal, none of which have merit. We affirm Issues II-V without comment. In Issue I, Appellant argues the trial court applied the incorrect burden of proof to his case. This issue is unpreserved; Appellant neither objected nor filed a motion for rehearing below. See, e.g., Knowlton v. Knowlton, 282 So. 3d 154, 155–56 (Fla. 1st DCA 2019) (citing Credit Counseling Found., Inc. v. Hylkema, 958 So. 2d 1059, 1061 (Fla 4th DCA 2007) (holding that when a party fails to object to the trial court's assignment of burden of proof and when the party willingly acquiesces to the court's imposition of burden of proof, the party cannot argue for first time on appeal that the court improperly assigned burden of proof)).

Affirmed.

Per Curiam.

Roberts, Rowe, and M.K. Thomas, JJ., concur.
