Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas USDC No. 4:24-CV-817

______________________________

Before Higginbotham, Engelhardt, and Ramirez, Circuit Judges.

Per Curiam: *

Zak Shaik appeals the district court’s dismissal of his pro se complaint against Charles Schwab & Company, Inc., and others (Schwab).

The district court did not err in granting Schwab’s motion to compel arbitration. See Kubala v. Supreme Prod. Servs., Inc., 830 F.3d 199, 201-02 Case: 25-10949 Document: 59-1 Page: 2 Date Filed: 05/22/2026

No. 25-10949

(5th Cir. 2016); Edwards v. Doordash, Inc., 888 F.3d 738, 746 (5th Cir. 2018). Similarly, the district court did not err in dismissing Shaik’s case for lack of prosecution. See Griggs v. S.G.E. Mgmt., L.L.C., 905 F.3d 835, 844 (5th Cir. 2018).

Furthermore, Shaik does not sufficiently brief the other arguments he raises on appeal. See Yohey v. Collins, 985 F.2d 222, 224-25 (5th Cir. 1993); Brinkmann v. Dallas Cnty. Deputy Sheriff Abner, 813 F.2d 744, 748 (5th Cir. 1987).

Accordingly, the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
