Before SUAREZ, C.J., and SALTER and EMAS, JJ.

      SUAREZ, C.J.

      N.B., an uncharged father, appeals the trial court’s granting of visitation by

the maternal grandmother of his child. We affirm because the record below makes
clear that N.B. repeatedly consented to the visitation and confirmed several times

that he understood that the trial court was permitting it. Clear Channel Metroplex,

Inc. v. Sunbeam Television Corp., 922 So.2d 229, 232 (Fla. 3d DCA 2005)

(Waiver is “the voluntary and intentional relinquishment of a known right.”).

      Affirmed.
