PER CURIAM:
Anthony Bussie appeals the district court’s order dismissing under 28 U.S.C.
§ 1915(e)(2)(B) his complaint filed pursuant to Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of
Federal Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388 (1971). On appeal, we confine our review to
the issues raised in the informal brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Bussie’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
