UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 19-7315 DARRELL WILLIAMS, Plaintiff - Appellant, v. BRYAN STIRLING; OFFICER WIGGINS; WARDEN RANDALL WILLIAMS, Defendants - Appellees. Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Charleston. Cameron McGowan Currie, Senior District Judge. (2:18-cv-01690-CMC) Submitted: April 16, 2020 Decided: May 28, 2020 Before HARRIS and RUSHING, Circuit Judges, and SHEDD, Senior Circuit Judge. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Darrell J. Williams, Appellant Pro Se. Gordon Wade Cooper, BUYCK, SANDERS & SIMMONS, LLC, Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina, for Appellees. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Darrell J. Williams appeals the district court’s order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2018) complaint without prejudice for failure to exhaust administrative remedies. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the informal brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Williams’ informal brief does not challenge the basis for the district court’s disposition, he 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 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
