PER CURIAM:
Appellants, Albert Green, Jr., and Ephonia M. Green, appeal the district court’s
order dismissing their complaint alleging that a law firm and attorneys who worked for
the law firm violated the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, 15 U.S.C. §§ 1692-1692p
(2012), in regard to a state foreclosure proceeding. On appeal, we confine our review to
the issues raised in the Appellants’ brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because the informal
brief does not challenge the basis for the district court’s disposition, the Appellants have
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
