Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at
Norfolk. Arenda L. Wright Allen, District Judge. (2:21-cv-00314-AWA-LRL)
Submitted: March 29, 2022 Decided: April 1, 2022
Before HARRIS, QUATTLEBAUM, and HEYTENS, Circuit Judges.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Amos Jacob Arroyo, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Amos Jacob Arroyo appeals the district court’s order dismissing his 42 U.S.C.
§ 1983 complaint without prejudice for failure to comply with the district court’s order to
submit a completed consent form for the collection of the filing fee. On appeal, we confine
our review to the issues raised in the informal brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because
Arroyo’s informal briefs do 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
