PER CURIAM:
Tyel Lashawn Claiborne, Sr., appeals the district court’s order dismissing his
42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) action for failure to prosecute. On appeal, we confine our
review to the issues raised in the Appellant’s brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because
Claiborne’s informal brief does not challenge the basis for the district court’s disposition,
Claiborne has forfeited appellate review of the court’s order. See Williams v. Giant Food
Inc., 370 F.3d 423, 430 n.4 (4th Cir. 2004). Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the
district court. 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
