    UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
    FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
    No. 12-7385
    UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
    Plaintiff - Appellee,
    v.
    LINWOOD BATTS, JR.,
    Defendant - Appellant.
    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern
    District of North Carolina, at Raleigh.   Louise W. Flanagan,
    District Judge. (5:07-cr-00064-FL-1)
    Submitted:   December 13, 2012            Decided:   December 18, 2012
    Before MOTZ, WYNN, and FLOYD, Circuit Judges.
    Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
    Linwood Batts, Jr., Appellant Pro Se. Jennifer P. May-Parker,
    Ethan A. Ontjes, Assistant United States Attorneys, Raleigh,
    North Carolina, for Appellee.
    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
    PER CURIAM:
    Linwood Batts, Jr., appeals the district court’s order
    denying for lack of jurisdiction his motion seeking an extension
    of time to file a motion under 
    28 U.S.C.A. § 2255
     (West Supp.
    2012).     On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in
    the appellant’s brief.        See 4th Cir. R. 34(b).            Because Batts’
    informal brief does not challenge the basis for the district
    court’s disposition, Batts 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
