    UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
    FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
    No. 21-7708
    AMOS JACOB ARROYO,
    Plaintiff - Appellant,
    v.
    SERGEANT JOHN BOYER; HAMPTON ROADS REGIONAL JAIL; THE CITY
    OF   NEWPORT   NEWS;   SUPERINTENDENT    JOHN   DOE;     VIS
    SUPERINTENDENT JOHN DOE; MAJOR JOHN BARNES; CAPTAIN(S) JOHN
    DOE,
    Defendants - Appellees.
    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at
    Norfolk. Arenda L. Wright Allen, District Judge. (2:21-cv-00314-AWA-LRL)
    Submitted: March 29, 2022                                         Decided: April 1, 2022
    Before HARRIS, QUATTLEBAUM, and HEYTENS, Circuit Judges.
    Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
    Amos Jacob Arroyo, Appellant Pro Se.
    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
    PER CURIAM:
    Amos Jacob Arroyo appeals the district court’s order dismissing his 
    42 U.S.C. § 1983
     complaint without prejudice for failure to comply with the district court’s order to
    submit a completed consent form for the collection of the filing fee. On appeal, we confine
    our review to the issues raised in the informal brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because
    Arroyo’s informal briefs do 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
