SIXTH DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL

Case No. 6D2025-0887 Lower Tribunal No. 2015-DR-000207

MAARTEN A. PETERS, Appellant,

V.

BLANCA LORENA PETERS, Appellee.

Appeal pursuant to Fla. R. App. P. 9.130 from the Circuit Court for Lee County. John S. Carlin, Judge.

May 15, 2026

PER CURIAM.

Maarten A. Peters (Former Husband) appeals the trial court's order granting Blanca Peters's (Former Wife) Motion for Temporary Relief and further challenges the trial court's denial of his April 14, 2025, motion to disqualify. We affirm the order of modification. Insofar as Former Husband seeks review of the order denying his motion to disqualify, we treat the notice of appeal as a petition for writ of prohibition and deny it on the merits. Topps v. State, 865 So. 2d 1253, 1258 (Fla. 2004).

AFFIRMED; PETITION DENIED.

NARDELLA, WOZNIAK and WHITE, JJ., concur.

Maarten A. Peters, Estero, pro se.

Blanca Lorena Peters, pro se.
