PER CURIAM:

Rodney F. Poston appeals the district court’s order granting 

summary judgment to Rock Tenn Smurfit-Stone in Poston’s employment 

discrimination action. On appeal, we confine our review to the 

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

Because Poston’s informal brief does not challenge the basis for 

the district court’s disposition, Poston 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
