Affirmed. See Bowden v. State, 588 So.2d 225 (Fla.1991); Hardwick v. State, 521 So.2d 1071 (Fla.), cert. denied, 488 U.S. 871, 109 S.Ct. 185, 102 L.Ed.2d 154 (1988); Myles v. State, 582 So.2d 71 (Fla. 3d DCA), review granted, No. 78,308 (Fla. Dec. 27, 1991).

BASKIN and GODERICH, JJ., concur.

SCHWARTZ, Chief Judge

(dissenting).

In my judgment, the record fails to establish a cognizable basis for the denial of the defendant’s request to conduct his own defense. Faretta v. California, 422 U.S. 806, 95 S.Ct. 2525, 45 L.Ed.2d 562 (1975); Kimble v. State, 429 So.2d 1369 (Fla.3d DCA 1983). Accordingly, I would reverse the judgment below.
