IN the INTEREST OF Y.R-P., a child. J.R-P., Appellant, v. Department of Children and Families, Guardian Ad Litem Program, M.H., and O.R., Appellees.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Ita Neymotin , Regional Counsel, Second District, and Marisa L. Gonzalez , Assistant Regional Counsel, Bartow, for Appellant.

Matthew C. Wilson , Sanford, for Appellee Guardian ad Litem Program.

Norman A. Palumbo, Jr. , Tampa, for Appellee M.H.

Scott L. Robbins , Tampa, for Appellee O.R.


J.R-P. appeals a final order disestablishing his paternity. We affirm. We write, however, to address J.R-P.'s argument that the trial court improperly granted another male standing to challenge paternity under chapter 742, Florida Statutes (2014), in a dependency case.1
