DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA
FOURTH DISTRICT
ADEM ALBRA,
Appellant,
v.
LESLIE JOSEPH SZENDY,
Appellee.
No. 4D19-2019
[July 22, 2020]
Appeal from the Circuit Court for the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit,
Broward County; Michael G. Kaplan, Judge; L.T. Case No. DVCE-19-
003942.
Adem Albra, Fort Lauderdale, pro se.
No appearance for appellee.
PER CURIAM.
We affirm the final judgment of injunction against domestic violence.
Appellant has failed to provide a transcript of the final hearing, without
which we cannot determine whether the trial court erred or that no
competent substantial evidence supports the final judgment. See
Applegate v. Barnett Bank of Tallahassee,
377 So. 2d 1150 (Fla. 1979);
Murphy v. Blubaugh,
252 So. 3d 809 (Fla. 2d DCA 2018). As to the issues
involving the temporary injunction, those issues have been made moot by
the entry of the permanent injunction. See Gray v. Gray,
958 So. 2d 955
(Fla. 1st DCA 2007). Finally, appellant has failed to show error in the
denial of his motion for disqualification of the judge, as the motion is based
upon adverse rulings by the trial court. As we said in Santisteban v. State,
72 So. 3d 187, 194 (Fla. 4th DCA 2011):
The facts and reasons given for the disqualification must tend
to show personal bias or prejudice. Levine v. State,
650 So.
2d 666, 667 (Fla. 4th DCA 1995). The fact that the judge has
made adverse rulings against the defendant in the past is not
an adequate ground for recusal, nor is the mere fact that the
judge has previously heard the evidence. Mansfield v. State,
911 So. 2d 1160, 1171 (Fla. 2005).
Affirmed.
WARNER, KLINGENSMITH and KUNTZ, JJ., concur.

Not final until disposition of timely filed motion for rehearing.
