UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 18-7438 CHARLES JORDAN, Plaintiff - Appellant, v. JOHN H. MAGILL; JAMES G. BOGLE; JUDGE PAUL M. BURCH, Defendants - Appellees. Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Orangeburg. David C. Norton, District Judge. (5:18-cv-02852-DCN) Submitted: April 18, 2019 Before WILKINSON, MOTZ, and KEENAN, Circuit Judges. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Charles Jordan, Appellant Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. Decided: April 22, 2019 PER CURIAM: Charles Jordan appeals the district court’s order adopting the magistrate judge’s recommendation to dismiss, after a 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e) (2012) review, Jordan’s 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) complaint. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the Appellant’s brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Jordan’s informal brief and supplement thereto do not dispute the bases for the district court’s dismissal, Jordan has forfeited appellate review of the district court’s order. See Williams v. Giant Food Inc., 370 F.3d 423, 430 n.4 (4th Cir. 2004). Accordingly, we deny Jordan’s motion for appointment of counsel 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
