PER CURIAM:
Eric M. McMillian and Darryl LaFace appeal the
district court’s order and judgment dismissing their 42 U.S.C.
§ 1983 (2012) civil rights complaint, which they filed while
detained at the Wake County Detention Center. For the reasons
that follow, we affirm the judgment.
The district court first denied McMillian’s request to
proceed without prepayment of the filing fee, found that
McMillian did not allege that he was under imminent danger of
serious physical injury, and dismissed him from the action
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(g) (2012). We have reviewed the
record, including the dismissal orders identified as qualifying
strikes pursuant to § 1915(g), and find no reversible error.
Accordingly, we affirm McMillian’s dismissal from the suit for
the reasons stated by the district court. See McMillian v.
Harrison, No. 5:13-ct-03259-D (E.D.N.C. Mar. 4, 2014).
The district court later dismissed without prejudice
the claims raised by LaFace. On appeal, we confine our review
to the issues raised in the Appellant’s brief. See 4th Cir. R.
34(b). Because neither the informal brief nor the supplemental
informal brief challenges this aspect of the district court’s
disposition, LaFace has forfeited appellate review of the
court’s order.

Accordingly, while we grant leave to proceed on appeal
in forma pauperis, 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
