United States v. Kenyatta Sykes , 589 F. App'x 226 ( 2015 )


Menu:
  • Affirmed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

    PER CURIAM:

    Kenyatta Sykes appeals from the district court’s October 6, 2014 orders denying his letter motions and motions for reconsideration and for other relief and its October 7, 2014 order adjudicating his motion to amend a prior reconsideration motion and for other relief. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the Appellant’s brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Sykes’ informal brief does not challenge the basis for the district court’s dispositions, Sykes has forfeited appellate review of the court’s orders. * Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s orders. 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.

    *

    In his informal brief, Sykes challenges the district court’s September 11, 2014 order denying his motion for reduction of sentence. To the extent Sykes seeks appellate review of that order, we may not review it because Sykes did not designate the order as an order for which he sought appellate review in his notice of appeal. See Jackson v. Lightsey, — F.3d -, No. 13-7291, 2014 WL 7210989, slip op. at 10-14 (4th Cir. Dec. 18, 2014).
