PER CURIAM:
Antonio Sheppard Williams appeals the district court’s order granting Defendants’
motion for summary judgment because Williams failed to exhaust his administrative
remedies. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the Appellant’s brief.
See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Williams’ informal brief does not challenge the basis for
the district court’s disposition, Williams 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
