PER CURIAM:

Michelet Saint Louis appeals the district court’s order granting Defendants’ motion

for summary judgment and dismissing his

42 U.S.C. § 1983

complaint for failure to

exhaust administrative remedies. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in

the informal brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Saint Louis’ 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 deny Saint Louis’ motion to appoint counsel. 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
