UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 12-8130
RAYMOND DARNELL JOHNSON,
Plaintiff - Appellant,
v.
DIRECTOR OF VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS,
Defendant - Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western
District of Virginia, at Roanoke. Norman K. Moon, Senior
District Judge. (7:12-cv-00152-NKM-RSB)
Submitted: March 26, 2013 Decided: March 28, 2013
Before DUNCAN, FLOYD, and THACKER, Circuit Judges.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Raymond Darnell Johnson, Appellant Pro Se. John Michael
Parsons, Assistant Attorney General, Richmond, Virginia, for
Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Raymond Darnell Johnson appeals the district court’s
order dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2006) complaint for
failure to state a claim. On appeal, we confine our review to
the issues raised in Johnson’s brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b).
Because Johnson does not challenge the basis for the district
court’s disposition in his informal brief, he has forfeited
appellate review of the court’s order. Accordingly, we deny
Johnson’s motion for leave to amend his complaint 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
