PER CURIAM:

Mengyang Li appeals the district court’s order granting Defendant’s Fed. R. Civ. P.

52(c) motion for judgment on partial findings after a bench trial on Li’s discrimination,

harassment, and retaliation claims, brought pursuant to Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of

1964, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 2000e-17. Limiting our review to the record before us and to

the issues raised in Li’s informal briefs, see 4th Cir. R. 34(b); see also Jackson v. Lightsey,

(4th Cir. 2014) (“The informal brief is an important document; under

Fourth Circuit rules, [this court’s] review is limited to issues preserved in that brief.”), we

have found no reversible error and therefore affirm the district court’s order. Li v. Shepherd

Univ., No. 3:19-cv-00216-GMG-RWT (N.D. W. Va. Mar. 18, 2024). 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
