PER CURIAM.

¶1We affirm the order striking the appellant’s pleadings. Trial courts have discretion to strike a party’s pleadings or dismiss claims for fraud on the court. See Rios v. Moore, 902 So.2d 181 (Fla. 3d DCA 2005); Storm v. Allied Universal Corp., 842 So.2d 245 (Fla. 3d DCA 2003); O'Vahey v. Miller, 644 So.2d 550 (Fla. 3d DCA 1994). The record before us does not support the appellant’s contention that the trial court abused its discretion in this regard.

¶2Affirmed.
