Opinion of the Court
Tanenbaum

PER CURIAM.

AFFIRMED. See Boston v. State, 46 Fla. L. Weekly S285 (Fla. Oct. 7, 2021) (recognizing that, where a trial court applies an incorrect standard of proof at a pre-trial Stand Your Ground immunity hearing, such error is cured when the State overcomes defendant’s self-defense claim at trial under the heavier burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt); Dennis v. State, 51 So. 3d 456, 464 (Fla. 2010) (concluding trial court’s error was harmless because there was “no reasonable possibility that the trial court’s failure to make a pretrial evidentiary determination regarding Dennis’s immunity claim contributed to Dennis’s conviction” because the jury rejected Dennis’s self-defense claim and “determined that the evidence established beyond a reasonable

doubt that Dennis committed the lesser included offense of felony battery.”).
