PER CURIAM:
Katherine B. Robinson appeals the district court’s order dismissing on res judicata
grounds her civil complaint against the Department of Justice Drug Enforcement
Administration and the Virginia Employment Commission, and the district court’s order
issuing a pre-filing injunction against Robinson for her repeated filing of similar
complaints against these Defendants. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues
raised in the Appellant’s brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Robinson’s opening and
supplemental informal briefs do not challenge the basis for the district court’s dispositive
rulings, Robinson has forfeited appellate review of the district court’s orders. See
Williams v. Giant Food Inc., 370 F.3d 423, 430 n.4 (4th Cir. 2004); see also Edwards v.
City of Goldsboro, 178 F.3d 231, 241 n.6 (4th Cir. 1999) (failure to raise issue in opening
brief constitutes abandonment of that issue). Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s
orders. See Robinson v. DOJ/DEA, No. 8:16-cv-03850-DKC (D. Md. Dec. 22, 2016 &
Jan. 3, 2017). 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
