PER CURIAM.

AFFIRMED. See Roberts v. Florida Ins. Guaranty Ass’n, 415 So. 3d 1181, 1182-83 (Fla. 5th DCA 2025) (Plaintiff invited error by referencing a pre-suit notice in her response to a motion to dismiss, arguing the notice met all statutory requirements of section 627.70152(3), Florida Statute, and asking the trial court to approve the notice. Thus, trial court did not err when it strayed beyond four corners of complaint in reviewing the notice and dismissing case).

EISNAUGLE, SOUD, and BOATWRIGHT, JJ., concur.

_____________________________ Not final until disposition of any timely and authorized motion under Fla. R. App. P. 9.330 or 9.331. _____________________________
