PER CURIAM:

Adrian Nathaniel Bacon appeals the district court’s order 

dismissing, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A (2012), his 42 U.S.C. 

§ 1983 (2012) suit. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues 

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

Bacon’s informal brief does not challenge the district court’s 

conclusion that his suit must be dismissed as malicious, Bacon has 

forfeited appellate review of the court’s order. Accordingly, we

deny Bacon’s motion to appoint counsel and dismiss 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.

DISMISSED
