    Submitted: July 20, 2017
    Decided: July 24, 2017
    Freddie Andaya, Appellant Pro Se. To-rin L. Fury, William L. Hill, FRAZIER HILL & FURY, RLLP, Greensboro, North Carolina; Lynne P. Klauer, Assistant United States Attorney, Steven N.

    Before DUNCAN and WYNN, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge.
   Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Raymond Garcia appeals the magistrate judge’s orders entering judgment in favor of Defendants in Garcia’s action in which he alleged the use of excessive force during his arrest. The record does not contain a transcript of the jury trial. An appellant has the burden of including in the record on appeal a transcript of all parts of the proceedings material to the issues raised on appeal. Fed. R. App. P. 10(b); 4th Cir. R. 10(c). An appellant proceeding on appeal in forma pauperis is entitled to transcripts at government expense only in certain circumstances. 28 U.S.C. § 753(f) (2012). By failing to produce a transcript or to qualify for the production of a transcript at government expense, Garcia has waived review of the issues on appeal that depend upon the transcript to show error. See generally Fed. R. App. P. 10(b)(2); Keller v. Prince George’s Cty., 827 F.2d 952, 954 n.1 (4th Cir. 1987). Moreover, because Garcia’s informal brief does not challenge the basis for the magistrate judge’s disposition, Garcia has forfeited appellate review of the court’s orders. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b) (providing that réview is confined to the issues raised in the Appellant’s brief.); Williams v. Giant Food Inc., 370 F.3d 423, 430 n.4 (4th Cir. 2004). Accordingly, we affirm the magistrate judge’s judgment. We deny Garcia’s motion for appointment of counsel, and 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 
      
       The parties consented to the jurisdiction of a magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C, § 636(c) (2012).
