PER CURIAM: 

Barton Joseph Adams appeals from the district court’s 

September 23, 2015 order denying 16 of his motions filed in 

2014. On appeal, Adams fails to explain how the district court 

erred in its denial decisions. Accordingly, Adams has forfeited 

appellate review of the court’s order. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b); 

Wahi v. Charleston Area Med. Ctr., Inc., 562 F.3d 599, 607 

(4th Cir. 2009); Williams v. Giant Food Inc., 370 F.3d 423, 430 

n.4 (4th Cir. 2004). 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
