PER CURIAM:
Appellants, Heather H. Crossman and The PusssyKat ParTea, appeal the district
court’s order dismissing under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii) in the amended civil
complaint, which alleged a violation of the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment.
On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the informal brief. See 4th Cir. R.
34(b). Because Appellants’ informal brief does not challenge the basis for the district
court’s disposition, they 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
