Since the appeal occurs immediately after Jared's at-bat, Dawson is out for failing to bat in his proper turn.
There are now 2 out and the proper batter is whoever is at the top of the lineup (assuming a 9-player batting order).

That is correct. Ezar' at bat was legitimized by the pitch to Jared however, because Jared is now an improper batter (instead of Dawson), then Dawson is out and the top of the order is up.
