Affirmed. Irving v. State, 627 So. 2d 92, 94 (Fla. 3d DCA 1993) (“A
trial court has wide discretion concerning the admissibility of evidence, and
a ruling on admissibility will not be disturbed unless there has been an
abuse of discretion.” (citing Jent v. State, 408 So. 2d 1024, 1029 (Fla.
1981))); Jackson v. Household Fin. Corp. III, 298 So. 3d 531, 536–37 (Fla.
2020) (holding that under section 90.803(6), Florida Statutes, the
proponent of a business record need only lay foundation “using the
language of the statute or a close approximation of it,” and that the
testifying witness is not required “detail the basis for his or her familiarity
with the relevant business practices of the company or give additional
details about those practices as part of the initial foundation because this
would be inconsistent with the plain language of the statute” (citations
omitted)).
