Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, at Baltimore. Benson Everett Legg, District Judge. (1:05-cv-00805-BEL) Submitted: July 27, 2010 Decided: August 4, 2010 Before TRAXLER, Chief Judge, and WILKINSON and KEENAN, Circuit Judges. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. James E. Huff, Appellant Pro Se. Alex Gordon, Assistant United States Attorney, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: James E. Huff appeals the district court s order denying his motion to resume complaint, which the district court construed as a motion to reopen, and for the appointment of counsel. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). raised in the Appellant s brief. While Huff s informal brief asserts various errors in the district court s order dismissing his civil action, which was issued in September 2007, it does not challenge the district court s disposition of the motion that is the subject of this appeal. Thus, we hold Huff has forfeited appellate review of that order. Accordingly, dispense we with affirm oral the argument district because court s the judgment. facts and We legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
