PER CURIAM.
Affirmed. See Card v. Dugger, 512 So. 2d 829, 830 (Fla. 1987) (“Where an initial motion for post-conviction relief raises the claim of ineffective assistance of counsel, the trial court may summarily deny a successive motion which raises additional grounds for ineffective assistance of counsel.”) (citing Christopher v. State, 489 So. 2d 22, 24 (Fla. 1986)); Mathis v. State, 419 So. 2d 774, 775 (Fla. 1st DCA 1982) (“Mathis raised the issue of ineffective assistance of counsel in a previous 3.850 motion which he failed to timely appeal, resulting in its dismissal. He is, therefore, precluded from raising this issue again.”); see also Arbelaez v. State, 775 So. 2d 909, 915 (Fla. 2000) (holding that a criminal defendant “may not relitigate procedurally barred claims by couching them in terms of ineffective assistance of counsel”) (citing Valle v. State, 705 So. 2d 1331, 1336 n.6 (Fla. 1997)).
