NORMAN v. HAMPTON ROADS REGIONAL JAIL MEDICAL STAFF (2020)

Leon Andre Norman appeals the district court's dismissal order and judgment dismissing some claims pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b)(1) for failure to state a claim and dismissing the remaining claims pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a) for improper venue. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. The district court correctly dismissed part of the complaint for failure to state a claim. And Norman has waived any challenge to the dismissal of the remainder of the complaint on venue grounds by failing to raise that issue in his informal brief. 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.”). 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.
