Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Tavon Dixon seeks to appeal the district court’s order
denying relief on his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) action. In the
briefing order, Dixon was warned that this court would not consider
issues not specifically raised in his informal brief. See 4th Cir.
R. 34(b). Nonetheless, Dixon failed to raise any challenges to the
district court’s order in his informal brief and thus has failed to
preserve any issues for our review. Accordingly, we are
constrained to affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See
Dixon v. Baltimore City Police Dep’t, No. CA-03-1984-AW (D. Md.
Oct. 14, 2003). We dispense with oral argument because the facts
and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials
before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
