PER CURIAM:
Ken Gryder appeals the district court’s order dismissing, after a review pursuant to
28 U.S.C. § 1915, Gryder’s complaint purporting to raise several claims against
Defendants. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the informal brief.
See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Gryder’s informal brief does not challenge the basis for the
district court’s disposition, he 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 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
