PER CURIAM: Chiquita C. Carter appeals the district court’s order dismissing her pro se employment discrimination suit upon the conclusion of arbitration proceedings in favor of Defendants. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the informal brief.

See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Carter’s informal brief does not challenge the basis for the district court’s disposition, she 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
