SUSAN MATOUSEK,

                    Plaintiff - Appellant,

             v.

USA FORT STORY COMMANDING OFFICER, ET AL,

                    Defendant - Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at
Norfolk. Raymond A. Jackson, District Judge. (2:18-cv-00457-RAJ-LRL)

Submitted: April 12, 2019                                         Decided: May 14, 2019

Before DIAZ and RICHARDSON, Circuit Judges, and TRAXLER, Senior Circuit Judge.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Susan Neal Matousek, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

       Susan Neal Matousek appeals the district court’s order dismissing her civil action

for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues

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

briefs and additional documents filed on appeal do not challenge the basis for the district

court’s disposition, Matousek has forfeited appellate review of the court’s order.

See Jackson v. Lightsey, 775 F.3d 170, 177 (4th Cir. 2014) (“The informal brief is an

important document; under Fourth Circuit rules, our review is limited to issues preserved

in that brief.”). Accordingly, we deny Matousek’s petition for initial hearing en banc and

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
