PER CURIAM.

Affirmed. Applegate v. Barnett Bank of Tallahassee, 377 So. 2d 1150, 1152 (Fla. 1979) (“Without a record of the trial proceedings, the appellate court can not [sic] properly resolve the underlying factual issues so as to conclude that the trial court's judgment is not supported by the evidence[.] . . . The trial court should have been affirmed because the record brought forward by the appellant is inadequate to demonstrate reversible error.”); Castro v. Citizens Prop. Ins. Corp., 365 So. 3d 1203, 1206-07 (Fla. 3d DCA 2023) (“Whether notice was provided in a prompt manner is ordinarily a question for the factfinder, but ‘if the undisputed evidence will not support a finding that the insured gave notice to the insurer as soon as practicable, then a finding that notice was timely given is unsupportable.’” (internal citations omitted)); Hope v. Citizens Prop. Ins. Corp., 114 So. 3d 457, 460 (Fla. 3d DCA 2013) (“[The] evidence, however, is merely conclusory and fails to rebut the presumption of prejudice to [the insurer] where the passage of time has rendered [the insurer] unable to determine exactly what current damage is directly attributable to [the hurricane], and thus a covered loss.”).
