PER CURIAM:
Adrian Nathaniel Bacon appeals the district court’s order
dismissing, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A (2012), his 42 U.S.C.
§ 1983 (2012) suit.

On appeal, we confine our review to the issues

raised in the Appellant’s brief.

See 4th Cir. R. 34(b).

Because

Bacon’s informal brief does not challenge the district court’s
conclusion that his suit must be dismissed as malicious, Bacon has
forfeited appellate review of the court’s order.

Accordingly, we

deny Bacon’s motion to appoint counsel and dismiss 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.
DISMISSED
