NELSON WOODWARD RUPP, JR., Judge; STATE OF MARYLAND,
Defendants - Appellees.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of
Maryland, at Greenbelt. Roger W. Titus, District Judge. (8:07-cv-
03068-RWT)
Submitted: March 27, 2008 Decided: April 4, 2008
Before TRAXLER and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior
Circuit Judge.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Edson Furtado, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Edson Furtado appeals the district court’s order
dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint under 28 U.S.C.
§ 1915(e)(2)(B) (2000). In his informal appellate brief, Furtado
failed to address the district court’s basis for dismissing his
case. Therefore, Furtado has waived appellate review of that
issue. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b) (“The Court will limit its review to
the issues raised in the informal brief.”). Accordingly, we
affirm. Furtado’s motion for appointment of counsel is denied. 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
