PER CURIAM: Martinez Orlandis Black appeals the district court’s order denying his motions for sentencing credit. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the informal brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Black’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
