PER CURIAM:

Garry Sanders appeals the district court’s order adopting 

the magistrate judge’s recommendation and dismissing Sanders’ 

complaint for lack of jurisdiction pursuant to the RookerFeldman* doctrine. See 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B) (2012). On 

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

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

informal brief does not challenge the basis for the district 

court’s disposition, Sanders 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
