v. Case No. 5D22-1142 LT Case No. 2017-DP-650

DEPARTMENT OF CHILDREN AND FAMILIES,

Appellee ________________________________/

Opinion filed August 1, 2022

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Orange County, Heather L. Higbee, Judge.

Ryan Thomas Truskoski, of Ryan Thomas Truskoski, P.A., Orlando, for Appellant.

Kelley Schaeffer, Children’s Legal Services, Bradenton, for Appellee.

Nicholas A. Shannin, of Shannin Law Firm, P.A., Orlando, for Guardian Ad Litem Program.

PER CURIAM.

Mother, J.C., appeals a final judgment terminating her parental rights. Her only argument on appeal is that the trial court failed to orally advise her *2 of her right to file a motion for ineffective assistance of trial counsel. She acknowledges that our decision in T.D. v. Department of Children & Families, 187 So. 3d 365 (Fla. 5th DCA 2016), is controlling, but for reasons unexplained on this record, instead of complying with T.D., Mother invites this court to recede from that decision. We expressly decline to do so.

AFFIRMED.

LAMBERT, C.J., EDWARDS and EISNAUGLE, JJ., concur.
