No. 21-6617

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff - Appellee, v. RICO MALLARD CRUMP, a/k/a David Lee Crump, a/k/a Rico Mallard, a/k/a Fred Crump, Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina, at Greensboro. Catherine C. Eagles, District Judge. (1:00-cr-00293-CCE-5)

Submitted: September 14, 2021 Decided: September 20, 2021

Before THACKER and RICHARDSON, Circuit Judges, and TRAXLER, Senior Circuit Judge.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Rico Mallard Crump, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM: Rico Mallard Crump appeals the district court’s order denying his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) motion for a sentence reduction. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the informal brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Crump’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
