USCA4 Appeal: 22-1784 Doc: 7 Filed: 02/21/2023 Pg: 2 of 2

PER CURIAM: Lee Andrew Webb appeals the district court’s order dismissing his complaint without prejudice pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b) for failure to timely file an amended complaint as directed. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the informal brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Webb’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
