Opinion

IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL FIRST DISTRICT, STATE OF FLORIDA JOSEPH BRYAN FLYNN, NOT FINAL UNTIL TIME EXPIRES TO FILE MOTION FOR REHEARING AND Appellant, DISPOSITION THEREOF IF FILED v. CASE NO. 1D15-5802 AMBER MCCRANEY AND CHRISTOPHER MCCRANEY, Appellees.

_____________________________/ Opinion filed September 19, 2016.

An appeal from the Circuit Court for Escambia County.

Jan Shackelford, Judge.

Autumn O. Beck, Pensacola, for Appellant.

No Appearance for Appellees.

PER CURIAM.

Joseph Bryan Flynn appeals the trial court’s final order adopting the general magistrate’s Report and Recommendation dismissing Flynn’s petition seeking to establish paternity, time-sharing, and other related relief. Because the minor child was born to the intact marriage of Amber and Christopher McCraney, we affirm the final order in all respects. See Slowinski v. Sweeney, 64 So. 3d 128, 128-29 (Fla. 1st DCA 2011) (holding that a child born to an intact marriage cannot be the subject of a paternity proceeding brought by a biological father and determining it was fundamental error for the trial court to grant relief pursuant to a nonexistent cause of action); see also Sirdevan v. Strand, 120 So. 3d 1280 (Fla. 1st DCA 2013), rev. denied, 147 So. 3d 527 (Fla. 2014) (table).

AFFIRMED.

WINOKUR, JAY, and WINSOR, JJ., CONCUR.
