WIMER v. GREENE COUNTY GENERAL CIRCUIT COURT (2020)

Charles Wimer appeals the district court's order granting Defendants’ Fed. R. Civ. P. 12(b)(6) motion to dismiss Wimer's civil action in which he raised failure-to-accommodate claims pursuant to the “public services” subchapter of the Americans with Disabilities Act, see 42 U.S.C. §§ 12131-12134 (2018), and the Rehabilitation Act, see 29 U.S.C. § 794 (2018). On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the Appellant's brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Wimer's informal brief does not challenge the bases for the district court's disposition, Wimer has forfeited appellate review of the 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 affirm the district court's judgment. We deny Wimer's motion to add an additional party to his case. 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.
