Gloria Williams v. Jerry Tillett

UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 16-1845 GLORIA DEAN WILLIAMS, Plaintiff - Appellant, v. JERRY R. TILLETT, individually, and in his official capacity as Senior Resident Superior Court Judge District 1, North Carolina; JOSEPH H. FORBES, JR., Esquire, Defendants - Appellees. 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-00038-D) Submitted: October 13, 2016 Decided: October 17, 2016 Before NIEMEYER, DUNCAN, and WYNN, Circuit Judges. Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Gloria Dean Williams, Appellant Pro Se. Grady L. Balentine, Jr., Special Deputy Attorney General, Raleigh, North Carolina; Ronald Graham Baker, SHARP, MICHAEL, GRAHAM & BAKER, LLP, Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, for Appellees. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Gloria Dean Williams appeals the district court’s order dismissing her civil action for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the Appellant’s brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Williams’ informal brief does not challenge the basis for the district court’s disposition, Williams 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 dismiss the appeal. 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. DISMISSED 2
