v.
JAMES ROLLINS GLOVER, JR.,

Before GREGORY, Chief Judge, KING, Circuit Judge, and TRAXLER, Senior Circuit Judge.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
James Rollins Glover, Jr., Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:
James Rollins Glover, Jr., appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for
compassionate release under
18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A), as amended by the First Step Act
of 2018,
Pub. L. No. 115-391, § 603(b)(1),
132 Stat. 5194, 5239. On appeal, we confine
our review to the issues raised in the informal brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because
Glover’s informal brief does not challenge the basis for the district court’s disposition, he
has forfeited appellate review of the court’s order. See Jackson v. Lightsey,
775 F.3d 170, 177(4th Cir. 2014) (“The informal brief is an important document; under Fourth Circuit
rules, our review is limited to issues preserved in that brief.”). 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.
