UNPUBLISHED
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 16-2262
ADAM L. PERRY,
Plaintiff - Appellant,
v.
WILLIAM EARL BRITT, Federal Eastern District Judge at Wake
County in his Official Capacity,
Defendant - Appellee.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern
District of North Carolina, at Elizabeth City. James C. Dever,
III, Chief District Judge. (2:15-cv-00037-D)
Submitted: February 23, 2017 Decided: February 27, 2017
Before SHEDD and DIAZ, Circuit Judges, and DAVIS, Senior Circuit
Judge.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Adam L. Perry, Appellant Pro Se. Christopher Michael Anderson,
OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Raleigh, North Carolina,
for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Adam L. Perry appeals the district court’s order granting
Defendant’s Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(1) and 12(b)(6) motion and
dismissing his civil action for lack of subject matter
jurisdiction or, alternatively, failure to state a claim on
which relief could be granted, denying his motion to strike, and
denying as moot his motion to lift a stay of discovery.
On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in Perry’s
brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Perry’s informal brief
does not challenge with specific argument the district court’s
rulings, Perry has forfeited appellate review of the court’s
order. See Williams v. Giant Food Inc., 370 F.3d 423, 430 n.4
(4th Cir. 2004). Accordingly, we grant Perry’s applications
seeking leave to appeal in forma pauperis 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
