PER CURIAM:
Starsha M. Sewell appeals the district court’s order returning certain pleadings to
her pursuant to a previously imposed prefiling injunction.∗ On appeal, we confine our
review to the issues raised in the informal brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Sewell’s
informal brief does not challenge the district court’s rationale, she 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. 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
∗ To the extent that Sewell contests the prefiling injunction, we note that this court
previously affirmed that order. See In re Sewell, 732 F. App’x 221 (4th Cir. 2018) (No. 18-
1298).
