Bernard Hollomond v. Shannon Hadeed
Opinion
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
Bernard Hollomond seeks to appeal the district court’s order dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) complaint without prejudice for failure to comply with the court’s prior order directing Hollomond to pay an initial partial filing fee or aver that he cannot pay the fee under penalty of perjury. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b). On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the Appellant’s brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Hollomond’s informal brief does not challenge the basis for the district court’s disposition, Hollomond has forfeited appellate review of the court’s order. See Williams v. Giant Food Inc., 370 F.3d 423, 430 n.4 (4th Cir. 2004). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal. 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.
