## Opinion text

PER CURIAM.
Affirmed. Perkins v. State, 682 So.2d 1083, 1085 (Fla.1996) (holding that under the statutory definition of “dwelling” in section 810.011(2), Florida Statutes (1995), the design of a structure or conveyance, rather than the occupancy, is now the critical element, as “the legislature has extended broad protection to buildings or conveyances of any kind that are designed for human habitation.”).
