PER CURIAM.
Affirmed. See Perrin v. De Soleil S. Beach Ass’n, 305 So. 3d 598, 599 (Fla. 3d DCA 2020) (“[O]rder enforcing settlement based on nonjury finding on disputed evidence is reviewed on appeal for competent, substantial evidence because lower court is in best position to evaluate and weigh testimony and evidence based upon its observation of bearing, demeanor, and credibility of witnesses.” (citing Fratangelo v. Coosemans, 264 So. 3d 1079, 1079 (Fla. 3d DCA 2019) (“When the trial court conducts a full evidentiary hearing on a motion to enforce settlement, ‘[t]he findings of the trial court, as the trier of fact, come to this court clothed with a presumption of correctness, and where there is substantial competent evidence to sustain the actions of the trial court, the appellate court cannot substitute its opinion on the evidence but rather must indulge every fact and inference in support of the trial court’s judgment, which is the equivalent of a jury verdict.’” (quoting Smiley v. Greyhound Lines, Inc., 704 So. 2d 204, 205 (Fla. 5th DCA 1998))))).
