U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit · Decided August 1, 2014
580 F. App'x 217

Britt v. Virginia Department of Corrections

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM:

Melvin Alexander Britt appeals the district court’s order dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) complaint under 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b) (2012). On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the Appellant’s brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Britt’s informal brief does not challenge the basis for the district court’s disposition, Britt has forfeited appellate review of the court’s order. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s judgment. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED.
