PER CURIAM:
Christopher A. Odom appeals the district court’s order denying his motion to
reopen his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (2012) proceeding. On appeal, we confine our review to the
issues raised in the Appellant’s brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Odom’s informal
brief does not challenge the basis for the court’s disposition, Odom 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 deny Odom’s motion for initial en banc hearing, deny a
certificate of appealability, and dismiss the appeal. 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
