          FIRST DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL

                          No. 1D19-575
                  _____________________________

CESAR AUGUSTO FERRERA-
DISCUA,

    Petitioner,

    v.

STATE OF FLORIDA,

    Respondent.
                  _____________________________


Petition for Writ of Prohibition—Original Jurisdiction.

                           August 5, 2019

PER CURIAM.

     Because the evidence supporting Petitioner Ferrera-Discua’s
claim of self-defense was “wildly conflicting” and the State
presented clear and convincing evidence contradicting the claim,
the trial court did not err in finding that Petitioner was not entitled
to Stand-Your-Ground immunity. Mederos v. State, 102 So. 3d 7,
11 (Fla. 1st DCA 2012) (affirming denial of Stand-Your-Ground
immunity where the testimony below “contradict[ed] wildly” and
the evidence showed that the defendant did not act in self-defense
when he stabbed the victim). The petition for writ of prohibition is
denied on the merits. Petitioner may present his claim for self-
defense at trial. Spires v. State, 180 So. 3d 1175, 1180 (Fla. 3d DCA
2015).

ROBERTS, ROWE, and KELSEY, JJ., concur.
