Combined Opinion

DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL OF FLORIDA
SECOND DISTRICT

YAHYA YACOUB,

Appellant,

v.

SALEH YACOUB,

Appellee.

No. 2D2025-0949

February 27, 2026

Appeal pursuant to Fla. R. App. P. 9.130 from the Circuit Court for
Hillsborough County; Christopher Nash, Judge.

Yahya Yacoub, pro se.

No appearance for Appellee.

BLACK, Judge.
Yahya Yacoub appeals from the circuit court's order granting Saleh
Yacoub's motion to quash service of process, motion to vacate clerk's
default, and motion for entry of order of dismissal and denying Yahya's
motion to disqualify Saleh's counsel. We dismiss the appeal insofar as it
challenges that part of the order granting the motion to vacate the clerk's
default. See Dawkins, Inc. v. Huff, 836 So. 2d 1062, 1065 (Fla. 5th DCA
2003). The order is otherwise affirmed.
Affirmed in part; dismissed in part.

NORTHCUTT and ATKINSON, JJ., Concur.
