PER CURIAM:
Cora M. Hill appeals the district court’s orders
dismissing her civil action for failure to establish a proper
basis for jurisdiction over any of the named Defendants and
denying reconsideration of those orders. On appeal, we confine
our review to the issues raised in the Appellant’s brief. See
4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Hill’s informal brief does not
challenge the bases for the district court’s dispositions, Hill
has forfeited appellate review of the court’s orders.
Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed on appeal in
forma pauperis, we affirm the district court’s judgments. 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
