PER CURIAM:
Vincente Jarrett appeals the district court’s order granting Hampton Roads
Shipping Association’s motion to dismiss. On appeal, we confine our review to the
issues raised in the Appellant’s brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Jarrett’s informal
brief does not challenge the basis for the district court’s disposition, Jarrett has forfeited
appellate review of the court’s order. See Jackson v. Lightsey, 775 F.3d 170, 177 (4th
Cir. 2014). Accordingly, we grant Jarrett leave to proceed informa pauperis and 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
