PER CURIAM: Michael Foster Felton appeals the district court’s April 18, 2019, order denying his motion for copy work. We confine our review to the issues raised in Felton’s informal brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Felton’s informal brief does not challenge the district court’s finding that Felton failed to show a particularized need for the copy work, he has forfeited appellate review of the court’s order. See Jackson v. Lightsey, 775 F.3d 170, 177 (4th Cir. 2014) (noting court’s review is limited to issues preserved in informal brief); Williams v. Giant Food Inc., 370 F.3d 423, 430 n.4 (4th Cir. 2004) (issues not raised in brief are abandoned). Accordingly, we affirm. ∗ 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

∗ Felton’s notice of appeal was untimely. But we decline to exercise our authority to dismiss the appeal sua sponte.
