PER CURIAM:
Curtiss Davis, III, appeals the district court’s order accepting the recommendation
of the magistrate judge, denying Davis’ motion for default judgment, and denying Davis’
other pending motions.∗ We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.
Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Davis v. Bonilla,
No. 1:20-cv-00992-RDA-WEF (E.D. Va. Aug. 19, 2022). 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
∗ We observe that Davis’ informal brief does not address the other rulings in either
the appealed-from dispositive order or in any of the court’s earlier orders. Because we
limit our review to the issues raised in an appellant’s informal brief, see 4th Cir. R. 34(b),
Davis has forfeited appellate review as to these rulings, 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.”).
