Huff v. United States Department of the Army

Opinion

UNPUBLISHED

UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 10-1436

JAMES E. HUFF,

Plaintiff – Appellant,

v.

UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY,

Defendant – Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, at Baltimore. Benson Everett Legg, District Judge. (1:05-cv-00805-BEL)

Submitted: July 27, 2010 Decided: August 4, 2010

Before TRAXLER, Chief Judge, and WILKINSON and KEENAN, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

James E. Huff, Appellant Pro Se. Alex Gordon, Assistant United States Attorney, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

James E. Huff appeals the district court’s order

denying his “motion to resume complaint,” which the district

court construed as a motion to reopen, and for the appointment

of counsel. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues

raised in the Appellant’s brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). While

Huff’s informal brief asserts various errors in the district

court’s order dismissing his civil action, which was issued in

September 2007, it does not challenge the district court’s

disposition of the motion that is the subject of this appeal.

Thus, we hold Huff has forfeited appellate review of that order.

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 the

court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
