PER CURIAM:

Eric Emanuel Taylor appeals the district court’s order 

dismissing without prejudice his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) 

complaint against a state court judge for failure to state a 

claim pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)(ii) (2012). On 

appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the 

Appellant’s brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Taylor does 

not challenge in his informal brief the basis for the district 

court’s disposition, he has forfeited appellate review of the 

court’s 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 this court and argument would not aid the decisional 

process.

AFFIRMED
