Opinion
UNPUBLISHED
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 20-7239
OLANDER R. BYNUM,
Plaintiff - Appellant,
v.
TIMOTHY K. SPENCER,
Defendant - Appellee.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, at Raleigh. Louise W. Flanagan, District Judge. (5:19-ct-03322-FL)
Submitted: February 23, 2021 Decided: February 26, 2021
Before MOTZ, KEENAN, and HARRIS, Circuit Judges.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Olander R. Bynum, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:
Olander R. Bynum appeals the district court’s order dismissing his
42 U.S.C. § 1983action as duplicative and, therefore, frivolous, pursuant to
28 U.S.C. § 1915(e). On appeal,
we confine our review to the issues raised in the informal brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b).
Because Bynum’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.
AFFIRMED
