See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Blevins’ informal brief does not challenge the basis for the magistrate judge’s disposition, Blevins has forfeited appellate review of the district court’s order. See Jackson v. Lightsey, 775 F.3d 170, 177 (4th Cir. 2014) (“The informal brief is an important document; under Fourth Circuit rules, our review is limited to issues preserved in that brief.”). Accordingly, we deny Blevins’ motions to argue the case in seriatim with a previously decided appeal and for a stay or injunction and affirm the magistrate judge’s order. Blevins v. Vidal, No. 1:22-cv-02360- ABA (D. Md. June 18, 2024). 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 The parties consented to the jurisdiction of the magistrate judge in accordance with * 28 U.S.C. § 636(c). 2
