Opinion filed November 17, 2020

Robert D. Peterson, Bowling Green, pro se.

No Appearance for Appellee.

PER CURIAM.

AFFIRMED. See King v. State , 259 So. 3d 317, 319 n.3 (Fla. 1st DCA 2018) ("Generally, if the sentence was not illegal at the time it was imposed, the defendant is not entitled to relief under Rule 3.800(a) by virtue of a later-decided case. This is especially true where, as here, a binding opinion at the time of sentencing permitted the sentence.").
