USCA4 Appeal: 25-6792 Doc: 12 Filed: 01/29/2026 Pg: 2 of 2

PER CURIAM: Weldon Eugene Holtzclaw, Jr., appeals the district court’s order imposing filing restrictions due to Holtzclaw’s “voluminous, vexatious, and abusive filing practices.” On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the informal brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Holtzclaw’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 order. United States v. Blouin, No. 6:25- cv-11486-DCC-KFM (D.S.C. Sep. 3, 2025). 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
