PER CURIAM:
Kimberly T. Spence appeals the district court’s order
dismissing her petition to remove her state child-custody case
to federal court as improperly filed, construing her petition as
a complaint, and dismissing the complaint under the Rooker-
Feldman* doctrine. On appeal, we confine our review to the
issues raised in the Appellant’s brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b).
Because Spence’s informal brief does not challenge the basis for
the district court’s disposition, Spence has forfeited appellate
review of the court’s order. Accordingly, we affirm the
district court’s judgment and deny Spence’s motion for a
transcript at government expense. 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
* D.C. Court of Appeals v. Feldman, 460 U.S. 462 (1983);
Rooker v. Fid. Trust Co., 263 U.S. 413 (1923)
