William T. GRAY, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. Kim BAGLEY, Prince George County Maryland Public Schools; Emory Waters, Prince George County Maryland Public Schools; Curtis Eugene, Prince George County Maryland Public Schools; Roselyn Hawkins, Prince George County Maryland Public Schools; Synthia Shilling, Prince George County Maryland Public Schools; Karen H. Remington, Prince George County Maryland Public Schools; Dennis P. Murphy, Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correction Services, Police and Corrections Training Commissions; Albert Liebno, Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correction Services, Police and Corrections Training Commissions; Dennis P. Murphy, Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correction Services, Police and Corrections Training Commissions; Daniel J. Roe, Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correction Services, Police and Corrections Training Commissions; Martin O'Malley, Governor, State of Maryland, Defendants-Appellees, 464 F. App'x 118

PER CURIAM: William T. Gray seeks to appeal the district court’s orders granting the Defendants’ Fed.R.Civ.P. 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss his complaint and denying his Fed. R.Civ.P. 59(

e) motion and motion for recusal. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in Gray’s informal brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Gray’s informal brief does not challenge the basis for the district court’s denial of his motion to recuse, Gray has forfeited appellate review of that order. Turning to the orders denying relief under Rules 12(b)(6) and 59(e), we have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny Gray’s motions for

summary disposition and affirm the district court’s orders for the reasons stated by the district court. See Gray v. Bagley, No. 8:11-cv-01117-JFM (D. Md. July 28, 2011 & Aug. 9, 2011). 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. . In any event, we note that Gray’s motion to recuse does not assert any facts that raise any question regarding the impartiality of the experienced district court judge.

Rather, fairly read, Gray’s assertion of bias is entirely predicated on Gray’s dissatisfaction with the district court’s rulings and management of the litigation. Thus, even had Gray properly preserved appellate review of the denial of his recusal motion, we would have no difficulty rejecting the claim on its merits. . To the extent Gray moves for

summary disposition against some Appellees for failure to file a response brief, we decline to grant such a motion. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b) (noting that Appellees are permitted, but not required, to file response brief).
