    PER CURIAM:
    Khalilah    Johnson      appeals        the    district       court’s    order
    granting summary judgment to her employer on her retaliation
    claim.     On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in
    the   Appellant’s     brief.      See        4th    Cir.    R.   34(b).       Because
    Johnson’s informal brief does not challenge the basis for the
    district    court’s   disposition,      Johnson       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, although we
    grant Johnson leave to proceed in forma pauperis, 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
