Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

               Malcolm Robert Lee Melvin appeals the district court’s

text order denying his motion for counsel and for an extension

of time to file a 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2012) motion.                         On appeal, we

confine    our    review     to    the    issues     raised      in    the    Appellant’s

brief.     See 4th Cir. R. 34(b).               Because Melvin’s informal brief

does     not     challenge        the    basis      for    the        district     court’s

disposition,       Melvin    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
