Machuei T. ANGOON, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HOMELAND SECURITY, Defendant-Appellee, 694 F. App'x 133

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Machuei T. Angoon appeals the district court’s order dismissing his civil complaint for failure to comply with the court’s prior order and denying his motion for appointment of counsel as moot. On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the Appellant’s brief. See 4th Cir.

R. 34(b), Because Angoon’s informal brief does not challenge the district court’s conclusion that he failed to comply with.the court’s prior order directing him to file an amended complaint particularizing his claims, Angoon has forfeited appellate review of the court’s' dispositive procedural ruling. See Williams v. Giant Food Inc., 370 F.3d 423, 430 n.4 (4th Cir. 2004). Although Angoon has challenged the court’s denial of his motion for appointment of counsel, we conclude that the court properly denied the motion as moot when it dismissed An-goon’s. complaint.

Accordingly, we deny Angoon’s pending motion for appointment of counsel and 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
