PER CURIAM:
Cheryl F. Cohens appeals the district court’s order
denying her motions for reconsideration of the court’s orders
granting summary judgment for Defendants on her employment
discrimination claims. On appeal, we confine our review to the
issues raised in the Appellant’s brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b).
Because Cohens does not challenge in her informal brief the
basis for the district court’s disposition of her motions for
reconsideration, she has forfeited appellate review of the
court’s order. Accordingly, we grant Cohens leave to proceed in
forma pauperis and 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
