UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff - Appellee, v. MARTINEZ ORLANDIS BLACK, Defendant-Appellant.

Martinez Orlandis Black, Appellant Pro Se.


UNPUBLISHED

Submitted: June 15, 2023

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of North Carolina, at Charlotte. Robert J. Conrad, Jr., District Judge. (3:06-cr-00364-RJC-1)

Martinez Orlandis Black, Appellant Pro Se.

Before DIAZ, RICHARDSON, and HEYTENS, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Martinez Orlandis Black appeals the district court's order denying his motions for sentencing credit. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the informal brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Black's informal brief does 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
