Ashley Moody, Attorney General, and Barbara Debelius, Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Appellee.

Per Curiam.

AFFIRMED . See § 921.1402(1), Fla. Stat. (2019) (making 25-year judicial review available only for offenses committed on or after July 1, 2014); see also Pedroza v. State , 291 So. 3d 541, 549 (Fla. 2020) (receding from principle in cases like Kelsey and Johnson "that resentencing is required for all juvenile offenders serving a sentence longer than twenty years without the opportunity for early release based on demonstrated maturity and rehabilitation"); id. at 548 (holding that "a juvenile offender's sentence does not implicate Graham , and therefore Miller , unless it meets the threshold requirement of being a life sentence or the functional equivalent of a life sentence").

Rowe, Makar, and Tanenbaum, JJ., concur.
