Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Harmeet Bawa, Appellant Pro Se. Robert Harvey Hillman, SAMUEL I. WHITE PC, Rockville, Maryland, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

2 PER CURIAM:

Harmeet Bawa appeals the district court’s order affirming the bankruptcy court’s

order dismissing her objection to NewRez LLC’s claim filed in her Chapter 13 bankruptcy

case. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the informal brief. See 4th

Cir. R. 34(b). Because Bawa’s informal brief does not challenge the basis for the district

court’s disposition, she 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 order. 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
