UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 16-6144

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff – Appellee,

v.

WENDELL ANTONIO JOHNSON,

Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia, at Roanoke. Michael F. Urbanski, District Judge. (7:04-cr-00128-MFU-1; 7:16-cv-80882-MFU-RSB)

Submitted: June 23, 2016 Decided: June 28, 2016

Before MOTZ, KING, and WYNN, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Wendell Antonio Johnson, Appellant Pro Se. Jean Barrett Hudson, Assistant United States Attorney, Charlottesville, Virginia, Donald Ray Wolthuis, Assistant United States Attorney, Roanoke, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Wendell Antonio Johnson seeks to appeal the district

court’s order dismissing his Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b) motion as a

second or successive 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2012) motion filed

without authorization. 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. 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
