Eric Emanuel Taylor, Appellant Pro Se.

PER CURIAM:

            Eric Emanuel Taylor appeals the district court’s order

dismissing without prejudice for failure to state a claim his

civil    complaint     against      the   Commonwealth          of     Virginia.      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

                                          2
