Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM

Vesta R. House appeals the district court's orders disposing of multiple motions in House's civil action, dismissing House's complaint after a 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e) review, [*]and denying House's Fed.R.Civ.P. 59(e) motion. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the informal brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because House's informal brief does not challenge the basis for the district court's rulings, she has forfeited appellate review of the appealed-from orders. 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."). We therefore affirm the district court's orders. 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

[*] Although the district court dismissed House's complaint without prejudice, we have jurisdiction over this appeal. See Bing v. Brivo Sys., LLC, 959 F.3d 605, 614-15 (4th Cir. 2020), cert. denied, 141 S.Ct. 1376 (2021).
