PER CURIAM:

      James   Lester    Roudabush,          Jr.,       appeals     from   the    district

court’s October 3, 2014, order dismissing Defendants Feldman,

Thatcher, and Hudson, the court’s July 7, 2015, order granting

Defendant Nelson’s motion for summary judgment, and the court’s

September 2, 2015, order denying his motion for reconsideration,

granting his motion for voluntary dismissal, and dismissing his

action raising claims under Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents

of Fed. Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388 (1971), and 42 U.S.C.

§ 1983 (2012).

      On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in

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

Roudabush’s informal brief does not proffer specific argument

challenging    the    bases     for   the        district     court’s     dispositions,

Roudabush has forfeited appellate review of the court’s orders.

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
