Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Jennifer Nix appeals from the final judgment of foreclosure entered after trial, arguing that the evidence presented was insufficient to prove the mailing of the default letter as required under Paragraph 22 of the mortgage. Federal National Mortgage Association concedes error. Accordingly, we reverse and remand for entry of an order of involuntary dismissal. E.g., Madl v. Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., 244 So. 3d 1134, 1137 (Fla. 5th DCA 2017).

REVERSED and REMANDED.

COHEN, C.J., ORFINGER and LAMBERT, JJ., concur.
