James C. Austin, Appellant Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

     James     C.    Austin    appeals      the        district    court’s        order

dismissing     without   prejudice       his      42     U.S.C.    § 1983      (2012)

complaint. ∗     On appeal, we confine our review to the issues

raised   in    the   Appellant’s   brief.          See     4th    Cir.    R.   34(b).

Because Austin’s informal brief does not challenge the basis for

the district court’s disposition, Austin has forfeited appellate

review   of    the   court’s   order.          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




     ∗ We conclude that the district court’s order is final and
appealable.   See Goode v. Cent. Va. Legal Aid Soc’y, Inc., 807
F.3d 619, 623-24, 629-30 (4th Cir. 2015).
