PER CURIAM:

James E. Huff appeals the district court’s order 

denying his “motion to resume complaint,” which the district 

court construed as a motion to reopen, and for the appointment 

of counsel. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues 

raised in the Appellant’s brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). While 

Huff’s informal brief asserts various errors in the district 

court’s order dismissing his civil action, which was issued in 

September 2007, it does not challenge the district court’s 

disposition of the motion that is the subject of this appeal. 

Thus, we hold Huff has forfeited appellate review of that order. 

Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s judgment. We 

dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal 

contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the 

court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
