UNPUBLISHED
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 11-1855
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff - Appellee,
v.
LLOYD MALLORY,
Defendant - Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of
Maryland, at Baltimore. J. Frederick Motz, Senior District
Judge. (1:11-cv-00880-JFM)
Submitted: April 18, 2012 Decided: May 8, 2012
Before NIEMEYER, KING, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Lloyd Mallory, Appellant Pro Se. Monika L. Moore, Assistant
United States Attorney, Alexandria, Virginia, for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Lloyd Mallory appeals the district court’s garnishment
disposition order. In his informal brief, Mallory fails to
raise any issue directly pertaining to the garnishment order.
In fact, Mallory merely argues that this court should grant a
stay of the execution of the garnishment order pending
resolution of his direct criminal appeal. The court has denied
his motion for stay and issued judgment in his direct criminal
appeal; thus, his request is now moot. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b)
(“The Court will limit its review to the issues raised in the
informal brief.”); Edwards v. City of Goldsboro, 178 F.3d 231,
241 n.6 (4th Cir. 1999) (issues not raised in opening brief are
deemed abandoned). Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s
order. United States v. Mallory, No. 1:11-cv-00880-JFM (D. Md.
filed July 20 & entered July 21, 2011). We further deny
Mallory’s motion for the appointment of counsel. We dispense
with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are
adequately presented in the materials before the court and
argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
