failure to timely file a brief. Wolf does not address this issue in his briefing
before this court.
“Although we liberally construe the briefs of pro se appellants, we also
require that arguments must be briefed to be preserved.” Yohey v. Collins, 985
F.2d 222, 225 (5th Cir. 1993) (quoting Price v. Digital Equip. Corp., 846 F.2d
1026, 1028 (5th Cir. 1988)). Wolf has abandoned any arguments regarding the
district court’s dismissal of his bankruptcy appeal by failing to argue them in
the body of his brief. See id. The district court’s dismissal is, therefore,
AFFIRMED. Wolf’s motion to supplement is DENIED as moot.
