delivered the opinion of the Court, in which
Chief Justice PHILLIPS, Justice OWEN, Justice HANKINSON, Justice JEFFERSON, and Justice RODRIGUEZ joined.In this official-immunity case, we must determine the good-faith standard to apply when a suspect sues a police officer for injuries sustained during an arrest. In City of Lancaster v. Chambers, 883 S.W.2d 650, 656 (Tex.1994), we held that an officer pursuing a suspect acts in good faith if a reasonably prudent officer could have believed that the pursuit should have been continued, taking into account both the need for immediate police intervention and the risk of harm to the public. In Wadewitz v. Montgomery, 951 S.W.2d 464, 466-67 (Tex.1997), we extended that test to an officer’s high-speed emergency response and elaborated on Chambers’ need and risk elements by announcing specific factors that officers must consider to show that they acted in good faith.
Here, we must decide whether the Wa-dewitz particularized need/risk assessment is required when a suspect sues for injuries sustained during an arrest. We conclude that it is not, because the public-safety concerns underlying that assessment are not implicated. When a suspect sues for injuries sustained during an ar*460rest, official immunity’s good-faith element requires the defendant to show that a reasonably prudent officer, under the same or similar circumstances, could have believed that the disputed conduct was justified based on the information the officer possessed when the conduct occurred. To controvert, the nonmovant must show that no reasonable officer under similar circumstances could have believed that the facts were such that they justified the disputed conduct. Applying this standard, we hold that the officer-defendant in this case is entitled to official immunity because he conclusively proved, and the plaintiff failed to controvert, that he acted in good faith. Accordingly, we reverse the court of appeals’ judgment and render judgment that the plaintiff take nothing.
I Background
Officers Rob Bailey and Mark Telthor-ster of the Navasota Police Department were on routine patrol when they observed Ollie Tennell commit traffic violations, including failure to properly signal a turn. The officers activated their sirens in an effort to pull Tennell over, but he accelerated and refused to stop. A high-speed pursuit ensued until Tennell finally stopped at his home in the City of Bryan. Tennell pulled up to his house and beeped his horn, apparently to attract the attention of those inside. Both officers drew their guns. Officer Bailey ordered Tennell to step out of his truck, and Tennell complied. While Officer Telthorster kept his gun drawn, Officer Bailey holstered his weapon, grabbed Tennell’s upper right arm, and placed Tennell face-down on the ground. Officer Telthorster approached from behind to help Bailey handcuff Ten-nell, who appeared to Telthorster to be struggling with Officer Bailey. With his gun still drawn, Telthorster cuffed Ten-nell’s left hand. Officer Telthorster was attempting to bring Tennell’s hands together when his gun accidentally discharged and a bullet ricocheted off Officer Bailey’s hand and grazed Tennell’s back. Although Tennell turned out to be unarmed, Officer Telthorster testified that during the seconds before his gun discharged he was unable to determine with certainty whether Tennell was concealing a weapon.
Tennell sued Officer Telthorster and the City of Navasota for his back injury, alleging that Telthorster was negligent in handling his gun and that the city was vicariously liable for his negligence. Tennell also alleged that Telthorster acted with malice because he knew his actions involved an extreme degree of risk, but he nevertheless proceeded in conscious indifference to the rights of others. The city was subsequently nonsuited and is not a party here. Officer Telthorster moved for summary judgment, asserting official immunity. The trial court granted Telthor-ster’s motion, and Tennell appealed.
The only issue before the court of appeals was whether Officer Telthorster conclusively established that he acted in good faith during the attempted arrest. The court of appeals applied the particularized need/risk standard that we announced in Chambers and elaborated on in Wadewitz. The court held that Telthorster’s summary judgment proof failed to conclusively establish his good faith and therefore he was not entitled to summary judgment on his official-immunity defense. 84 S.W.3d 1. We granted review to consider the good-faith standard that applies when a suspect sues for injuries sustained during an arrest.
II Good Faith
Official immunity is an affirmative defense that shields governmental employees from personal liability so that they *461are encouraged to vigorously perform their official duties. Kassen v. Hatley, 887 S.W.2d 4, 8 (Tex.1994). A governmental employee is entitled to official immunity for (1) the performance of discretionary duties (2) that are within the scope of the employee’s authority, (8) provided that the employee acts in good faith. Chambers, 888 S.W.2d at 653; see also DeWitt v. Harris County, 904 S.W.2d 650, 651-52 (Tex.1995); Kassen, 887 S.W.2d at 8-9; K.D.F. v. Rex, 878 S.W.2d 589, 597 (Tex.1994). To obtain summary judgment on the basis of official immunity, a governmental employee must conclusively establish each of these elements. See University of Houston v. Clark, 38 S.W.3d 578, 580 (Tex.2000). In deciding whether an employee’s summary judgment proof conclusively establishes the official-immunity defense, we must determine whether there are disputed facts material to its elements. In this ease, the parties do not dispute that at the time of the incident Officer Telthor-ster was performing a discretionary duty within the scope of his employment. But they do dispute whether he was acting in good faith.
In Chambers, we considered in some detail official immunity’s good-faith element. See Chambers, 883 S.W.2d at 656-57. Chambers involved a high-speed police pursuit that resulted in the death of a passenger who was riding with the fleeing suspect. Id. at 652. We sought to articulate a good-faith standard that would strike the proper balance between two competing interests: the threat of severely hampering police officers’ discretion by imposing civil liability for their mistakes, and the rights of bystanders and other innocent parties that may be trampled by an officer’s gross disregard for public safety. Id. at 656 (citing Scheuer v. Rhodes, 416 U.S. 232, 240, 94 S.Ct. 1683, 40 L.Ed.2d 90 (1974)). We held that an officer
acts in good faith in a pursuit case if: a reasonably prudent officer, under the same or similar circumstances, could have believed that the need to immediately apprehend the suspect outweighed a clear risk of harm to the public in continuing the pursuit.
Id. (emphasis added). This test’s “could have believed” aspect requires an officer to prove only that a “reasonably prudent officer might have believed that the pursuit should have been continued.” Id. at 656-57. If the officer meets this burden, the nonmovant must present evidence that “ ‘no reasonable person in the [officer’s] position could have thought the facts were such that they justified [the officer’s] acts.’ ” Id. at 657 (quoting Post v. City of Fort Lauderdale, 7 F.3d 1552, 1557 (11th Cir.1993)).
In Wademtz, we adhered to Chambers ’ general good-faith framework. 951 S.W.2d at 467. But we elaborated on the need and risk elements and applied them to an emergency-response situation involving a police officer who, in responding to an emergency call, collided with a third-party motorist. Id. We articulated specific factors for courts to consider in determining whether an officer sufficiently assessed both need and risk for the purpose of establishing good faith:
The “need” aspect of the test refers to the urgency of the circumstances requiring police intervention.... [N]eed is determined by factors such as the seriousness of the crime or accident to which the officer responds, whether the officer’s immediate presence is necessary to prevent injury or loss of life or to apprehend a suspect, and what alternative courses of action, if any, are available to achieve a comparable result. The “risk” aspect of good faith, on the other hand, refers to the countervailing public safety concerns: the nature and *462severity of harm that the officer’s actions could cause (including injuries to bystanders as well as the possibility that an accident would prevent the officer from reaching the scene of the emergency), the likelihood that any harm would occur, and whether any risk of harm would be clear to a reasonably prudent officer.
Id. In Clark, we applied these factors to assess an officer’s good faith in a high-speed police pursuit. 38 S.W.3d at 581-83. We did so because “pursuing a suspect and responding to an emergency involve the same general risk to the public — collision with a third party.” Id. at 583. We held that a police officer’s summary judgment proof does not offer a suitable basis for determining good faith unless it sufficiently assesses the Wadewitz need/risk factors. Id. at 584-85.
Ill Good Faith in this Case
The parties here agree that, as in high-speed pursuit and emergency-response cases, a police officer accomplishing an arrest is entitled to official immunity’s protection if its three elements are established. But they disagree, and we have never considered, how the good-faith element should be assessed when a suspect sues for injuries sustained during an arrest. The court of appeals applied the Wadewitz particularized need/risk analysis and concluded that Officer Telthorster’s summary judgment proof did not conclusively establish good faith. 84 S.W.3d at 6. Specifically, the court noted that the proof did not discuss the need for Officer Tel-thorster to complete Tennell’s handcuffing with his gun drawn, considering Officer Bailey’s conclusion that Tennell was unarmed, not attempting to flee, and presented no risk of harm to anyone. Id. The court further found the summary judgment proof deficient for failure to discuss alternative courses of action available to Officer Telthorster and whether Officer Bailey could have completed the handcuffing process without assistance. Id. at 6. Nor, the court of appeals held, did the evidence adequately evaluate the risk element of good faith by discussing the nature and severity of harm Officer Telthor-ster’s actions could have caused and the likelihood that harm would have occurred. Id. The court determined that a drawn weapon created a likelihood of harm to potential bystanders and that an officer must adequately assess this risk in order to establish good faith. Id. Concluding that Officer Telthorster’s summary judgment proof failed to adequately assess the need/risk factors, the court of appeals held that summary judgment was improper.
Tennell argues that the court of appeals properly applied the Wadewitz factors to assess Officer Telthorster’s good faith in accomplishing Tennell’s arrest, and that other cases have applied the need/risk analysis to arrest situations. See Bridges v. Robinson, 20 S.W.3d 104, 111-12 (Tex.App.-Houston [14th Dist.] 2000, no pet.); Geick v. Zigler, 978 S.W.2d 261, 265 (Tex.App.-Houston [14th Dist.] 1998, no pet.). According to Tennell, the need/risk analysis gives useful content to “good faith,” thus aiding courts in determining whether an officer acted appropriately in a particular case.
Officer Telthorster, on the other hand, contends that the Wadewitz particularized need/risk analysis was designed to protect innocent bystanders during a high-speed pursuit or emergency response, and that no such policy concerns are implicated here because Tennell’s arrest did not endanger the general public. Thus, Telthor-ster argues, a particularized need/risk assessment is not appropriate to evaluate his good faith in this case. See, e.g., City of San Antonio v. Garcia, 974 S.W.2d 756, 758 (Tex.App.-San Antonio 1998, no pet.) *463(defining good faith more generally in an arrest case without reference to the need/ risk elements); Rhodes v. Torres, 901 S.W.2d 794, 797-99 (Tex.App.-Houston [14th Dist.] 1995, no pet.) (same); City of Dallas v. Half Price Books, Records, Magazines, Inc., 883 S.W.2d 374, 376 (Tex.App.-Dallas 1994, no pet.) (same). We agree with Officer Telthorster because the public policy interest underlying the need/ risk analysis is not implicated in this case.
A. Public Policy Underlying Official Immunity
As we have said, “[t]he public would suffer if government officers, who must exercise judgment and discretion in their jobs, were subject to civil lawsuits that second-guessed their decisions.” Kassen, 887 S.W.2d at 8. Thus, official immunity is designed to protect public officials from being forced to defend their decisions that were reasonable when made, but upon which hindsight has cast a negative light. Police officers’ particular need for immunity’s protection is well-recognized: “[n]owhere else in public service is official immunity more appropriate or necessary than in police work. In their routine work, police officers must be free to make split-second judgments ... based on their experience and training, without fear of personal liability.” Travis v. City of Mesquite, 830 S.W.2d 94, 103 (Tex.1992) (Cornyn, J., concurring). If police officers were subject to liability for every mistake, the constant threat of suit could “dampen the ardor of all but the most resolute, or the most irresponsible” officers. Harlow v. Fitzgerald, 457 U.S. 800, 814, 102 S.Ct. 2727, 73 L.Ed.2d 396 (1982).
These public-policy concerns in large part underlie the test that we articulated in Chambers. See Chambers, 883 S.W.2d at 656-57. In Chambers, we said that courts should focus on what the defendant “could have believed,” that is, on the reasonableness of the officer’s perception under the circumstances surrounding the incident, not on the facts as they appear through the clarity of hindsight. See Chambers, 883 S.W.2d at 656; see also Rowland v. Perry, 41 F.3d 167, 172 (4th Cir.1994). In sum, our approach to good faith has been shaped by “a desire to avoid overdeterrence of energetic law enforcement.” Rowland, 41 F.3d at 172.
B. Additional Policy Concerns Underlying the Need/Risk Test
In Chambers, Wadewitz, and Clark, we recognized the importance of energetic law enforcement, but we also had to balance an important countervailing public-policy concern: the inherent risks that high-speed driving poses to those utilizing public streets and highways.1 To better protect “bystanders or other innocent parties” in a high-speed pursuit situation, Chambers required a police officer to consider both the need to immediately apprehend a suspect and the risk posed to the general public. *464Chambers, 883 S.W.2d at 656. To ensure that an officer’s consideration was -more than merely pro forma, Wadewitz went one step further by requiring the officer to particularly and meaningfully balance the need for police intervention in a given case against the countervailing public-safety concerns. Wadewitz, 951 S.W.2d at 467; see Clark, 38 S.W.3d at 586 (applying Wa-dewitz factors to an officer’s high-speed emergency response because a risk to the general public “is present to some degree in every police pursuit”). Thus, the particularized need/risk factors were crafted in an attempt to tailor a test that would better weigh the risks that high-speed chases and responses pose to the general public.
C. Public Policy and Good Faith in this Case
In this case, too, we must balance competing interests: the societal benefits that unflinching law enforcement provides and the right of citizens to recover for injuries arising from unreasonable conduct. See Chambers, 883 S.W.2d at 656. But here, when a suspect is injured during an arrest, the same public-policy concerns that caused us to formulate the particularized need/risk analysis are not implicated. The inherent risk to the general public that high-speed driving causes is not an issue. Nor is there evidence that the circumstances surrounding Tennell’s arrest created a risk to bystanders or the public in general. Thus, we are not presented with the same “ ‘countervailing public safety concerns’ ” that we faced in Chambers, Wadewitz, and Clark. Clark, 38 S.W.3d at 581 (quoting Wadewitz, 951 S.W.2d at 467).
While the public-safety concerns that underlie the need/risk analysis are not as substantial here as in the high-speed pursuit context, official immunity’s underlying purpose to encourage energetic law enforcement is. This purpose is most “salient in the context of street-level police work, which frequently requires quick and decisive action in the face of volatile and changing circumstances.” Rowland, 41 F.3d at 172. During arrest situations, officers routinely are “forced to make split-second judgments ... in circumstances that are tense, uncertain, and rapidly evolving.” Graham v. Connor, 490 U.S. 386, 396, 109 S.Ct. 1865, 104 L.Ed.2d 443 (1989). Arresting officers often confront at close range suspects whose violent intentions and capabilities may not be readily apparent. A high risk of liability in such a situation would likely compel arresting officers to act hesitantly when immediate action is required, subjecting themselves and the public to unnecessary “risks, and seriously hampering] their efforts to apprehend dangerous criminal suspects.” United States v. Merritt, 695 F.2d 1263,1274 (10th Cir.1982).
Based on these policy considerations, we hold that when an officer is engaged in an arrest that results in injury to the suspect, a particularized need/risk assessment is not compelled in light of official immunity’s overriding purpose to reduce the threat that civil liability may deter arresting officers from acting with the “decisiveness and the judgment required by the public good.” Chambers, 883 S.W.2d at 656. We disapprove of other courts of appeals’ decisions to the extent that they applied the particularized need/risk analysis to claims brought by suspects injured during an arrest. See Clement v. City of Plano, 26 S.W.3d 544, 551 (Tex.App.-Dallas 2000, no pet.); City of San Juan v. Gonzalez, 22 S.W.3d 69, 72 (Tex.App.-Corpus Christi 2000, no pet.); Bridges, 20 S.W.3d at 111-12; Geick, 978 S.W.2d at 265.
Nevertheless, our holding does not reheve Officer Telthorster of the bur*465den to establish that he acted in good faith for purposes of invoking official immunity’s protection. In this case, we beheve that the Chambers ’ good-faith test, absent its need/risk component, strikes the appropriate balance. To establish good faith, Officer Telthorster must show that a reasonably prudent officer, under the same or similar circumstances, could have beheved that his conduct was justified based on the information he possessed when the conduct occurred. See Chambers, 883 S.W.2d at 656-57. Officer Telthorster need not prove that it would have been unreasonable not to engage in the conduct, or that all reasonably prudent officers would have engaged in the same conduct. See id. at 657. Rather, he must prove only that a reasonably prudent officer, under similar circumstances, might have reached the same decision. See id. at 656-57. That Officer Telthorster was negligent will not defeat good faith; this test of good faith does not inquire into “what a reasonable person would have done,” but into “what a reasonable officer could have believed.” Wadewitz, 951 S.W.2d at 467 n. 1 (citing Chambers, 883 S.W.2d at 661 n. 5).
If Telthorster meets this burden, Tennell, to controvert, must do more than show that a reasonably prudent officer could have reached a different decision. See Chambers, 883 S.W.2d at 657. Instead, Tennell must offer evidence that no reasonable officer in Telthorster’s position could have believed that the facts were such that they justified his conduct. See id. “[I]f officers of reasonable competence could disagree on this issue,” the officer acted in good faith as a matter of law. Malley v. Briggs, 475 U.S. 335, 341, 106 S.Ct. 1092, 89 L.Ed.2d 271 (1986).
Tennell suggests that this test allows officers free rein and leaves those injured during an arrest without a remedy. On the contrary, good faith is not a mechanical inquiry, but rather turns on the particular facts presented. When an officer exceeds the bounds of reasonableness, good faith cannot be shown, and the officer will not enjoy official immunity’s protection. Chambers, 883 S.W.2d at 656-57. Thus, the public interest in deterring abusive police conduct and in compensating victims remains protected by the objective test that we announce today.
IY The Summary Judgment Evidence
Applying the good-faith test that we have articulated, we must examine the summary judgment proof to determine whether Officer Telthorster conclusively established that a reasonably prudent officer, under the same or similar circumstances, could have believed that keeping his gun drawn while attempting to handcuff Tennell was justified based on the information he possessed. We conclude that Officer Telthorster met this burden.
A. Officer Telthorster’s Proof
Officer Telthorster testified by deposition that during the high-speed chase he observed Tennell moving his free hand around inside the cab of his truck. When they finally arrived at Tennell’s house, Tennell beeped his horn in an apparent attempt to attract the attention of those inside. When Tennell stepped out of his truck, Telthorster “couldn’t see ... part of [Tennell’s] side and front” and therefore “wasn’t sure whether [Tennell] had a gun ... on him or not.” While Tennell was face-down on the ground, Tennell appeared to be struggling with Officer Bailey. Officer Telthorster testified that he did not have time to determine what Ten-nell was trying to do because “this all happened within a few seconds.”
In addition to his own testimony, Tel-thorster presented an affidavit from Officer Michael Patton, a law-enforcement *466academy director and an officer with twenty years of experience. Patton testified that a reasonable officer would be instructed to consider the likelihood that force would be necessary to subdue a suspect who had led officers on a high-speed chase. Patton emphasized the situation’s uncertainty, stating that pursuing officers cannot know a suspect’s motivation to flee or whether a suspect, in continuing a “demonstrated resistance to arrest,” might attempt to injure someone. In fact, Patton stated, such a suspect could be wanted for a serious crime and could be evading arrest for that reason. Thus, according to Patton,
[u]nder the circumstances presented by Tennell’s own actions, a reasonable officer would consider it appropriate for the police officers present to draw and have ready their firearms for the safety of the officers [and] the general public.... Indeed, at least one officer should, under such circumstances, keep a firearm un-holstered and ready up until the time Mr. Tennell was secured by handcuffs or any other form of restraint and was searched for a weapon incidental to his arrest.
Patton determined that Officer Telthor-ster’s “use of his gun under the facts of this incident was a reasonable exercise of his discretion, in accordance with standard officer training.” Patton concluded that
the discharge of [Telthorster’s] firearm was an inadvertent and unexpected mistake which seems to have been caused during the struggle to handcuff the suspect. Although this accident caused some injury to Mr. Tennell, the occurrence of this accident does not demonstrate any impropriety in Officer Tel-thorster’s conduct.
We believe that Officer Telthorster’s testimony and Patton’s affidavit conclusively demonstrate that a reasonably prudent officer might have decided to keep his gun drawn under circumstances similar to those presented in this case and therefore establish that Telthorster acted in good faith for official-immunity purposes. Ten-nell and the court of appeals focus on the fact that Tennell turned out to be unarmed and thus presented no risk of harm. 84 S.W.3d at 6. But that conclusion is unduly informed by hindsight. The proper focus is on whether a reasonable officer could have believed that the circumstances were such that Telthorster’s conduct was justified based on the information he possessed at the time. See Chambers, 883 S.W.2d at 656-57; see also Rowland, 41 F.3d at 172 (“[T]he immunity inquiry must be filtered through the lens of the officer’s perceptions at the time of the incident....”).
Telthorster testified that during the seconds before the accident he could not be certain that Tennell was unarmed. Additionally, Patton’s affidavit establishes that a reasonable officer, under the circumstances of this case, could have believed that his gun should have been drawn and ready to fire, at least up until Tennell had been handcuffed and searched for weapons. And given that Telthorster believed that Tennell, in moving his arms, was struggling with Officer Bailey, a reasonable officer, based on the facts that Tel-thorster perceived at the time, might have decided to help Officer Bailey handcuff Tennell. Under the uncertain and tense circumstances described, Patton concluded that the incident did not reveal any impropriety by Telthorster. We hold that Tel-thorster met his summary judgment burden to establish good faith.
B. Tennell’s Evidence
In order to controvert Officer Telthor-ster’s proof, Tennell had to show that no reasonable officer in Telthorster’s position could have believed that the circumstances *467justified his conduct. Tennell failed to meet this burden. Tennell offered deposition testimony from Officer Telthorster’s daytime supervisor, Officer Craig Wiese-pape, and from Lieutenant Craig Lys of the Navasota Police Department. Lieutenant Lys testified that it is reasonable for an officer to draw a gun only when the officer has reason to fear for his or her own personal safety or the safety of someone else, or when the offender is suspected of possessing a deadly weapon. In response to the question whether it is reasonable for an officer to handcuff a suspect while holding a firearm, Officer Wiesepape testified that it depends on the situation and “what’s happening.”
Tennell’s witnesses merely stated general conclusions without considering the particular facts of this case. See Clark, 38 S.W.3d at 578, 585-88 (summary judgment proof must discuss actual circumstances of the case). Although Lys stated that an officer should draw his weapon only when there is a safety concern, he did not establish that no reasonable officer could have held such a concern under the circumstances confronting Telthorster. See Chambers, 883 S.W.2d at 657. Nor did Tennell offer evidence establishing that no reasonable officer could have believed, under the circumstances, that it was reasonable for Telthorster to assist in handcuffing Tennell. See id. In fact, the summary judgment record contains subsequent affidavits from Lys and Wiesepape in which they acknowledge the particular facts confronting Officer Telthorster and conclude that he “acted reasonably on the evening that Tennell was arrested when [he] had his gun drawn during the apprehension of the suspect/Plaintiff.” At most, Tennell raised a fact issue regarding Telthorster’s negligence which, as we have said, is not enough to controvert Telthorster’s good faith. See id.
V Conclusion
We hold that when a suspect sues for injuries sustained during an arrest the officer-defendant, to establish his good faith for official-immunity purposes, must show that a reasonably prudent officer, under the same or similar circumstances, could have believed that his conduct was justified based on the information he possessed when the conduct occurred. To controvert the defendant’s good-faith evidence, the nonmovant must show more than that the defendant was negligent or that reasonably competent officers could disagree on the issue; instead, the nonmovant must show that no reasonably prudent officer could have believed that the defendant’s conduct was justified under the circumstances presented. In this ease, Officer Telthorster’s summary judgment evidence conclusively established, and Tennell failed to controvert, that he acted in good faith. Accordingly, we reverse the court of appeals’ judgment and render judgment that Tennell take nothing.
Justice ENOCH filed a concurring opinion, in which Justice HECHT and Justice BAKER joined. Justice OWEN filed a concurring opinion.. In recent years, commentators have expressed concern about the risks to the general public that high-speed pursuits present. See generally Travis N. Jensen, Note, Cooling the Hot Pursuit: Toward a Categorical Approach, 73 Ind. L.J. 1277, 1282-90 (1998) (discussing recent case law that has sought to provide greater protection to bystanders who are injured in high-speed pursuits); Seth Mydans, Alarmed by Deaths in Car Chases, Police Curb High Speed Pursuits, N.Y. Times, Dec. 26, 1992, at A1 (noting that high-speed pursuits cause hundreds of deaths each year). And various states’ courts have expressed concern for bystanders who are injured by high-speed pursuits, holding that the government may be liable to such parties. See, e.g., Robinson v. City of Detroit, 462 Mich. 439, 613 N.W.2d 307, 314 (2000); Haynes v. Hamilton County, 883 S.W.2d 606, 611 (Tenn.1994); City of Pinellas Park v. Brown, 604 So.2d 1222, 1227 (Fla.1992).
