      An Appeal from the Circuit Court for Miami-Dade County, Valerie R. Manno
Schurr, Judge.

      Jennifer Perez, in proper person.

      Filler Rodriguez, LLP, and Catherine M. Rodriguez, for appellee.


Before EMAS, C.J., and SCALES and HENDON, JJ.

      PER CURIAM.
      Jennifer Perez (the mother) appeals from an order suspending her timesharing

with the parties’ child. We review the trial court’s order for an abuse of discretion.

Ryan v. Ryan, 257 So. 3d 1168, 1169 (Fla. 3d DCA 2018) (noting: “The trial court's

limitations on the Former Wife's visitation are reviewed for an abuse of discretion.

The court has discretion to restrict or deny visitation to protect the welfare of the

child”) (citation omitted).

      The record on appeal is insufficient to permit meaningful appellate review, as

Perez has failed to provide this court with a transcript of the hearing conducted by

the trial court. Under these circumstances, and given that there are no errors on the

face of the order on appeal, we are compelled to affirm. As the Florida Supreme

Court held in Applegate v. Barnett Bank of Tallahassee, 377 So. 2d 1150, 1152 (Fla.

1979):

      In appellate proceedings the decision of a trial court has the
      presumption of correctness and the burden is on the appellant to
      demonstrate error. . . . When there are issues of fact the appellant
      necessarily asks the reviewing court to draw conclusions about the
      evidence. Without a record of the trial proceedings, the appellate court
      can not properly resolve the underlying factual issues so as to conclude
      that the trial court's judgment is not supported by the evidence or by an
      alternative theory. Without knowing the factual context, neither can an
      appellate court reasonably conclude that the trial judge so misconceived
      the law as to require reversal. The trial court should have been affirmed
      because the record brought forward by the appellant is inadequate to
      demonstrate reversible error.

      Affirmed.
