UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 19-2066
TYRIE TRIPLIN,
Plaintiff - Appellant,
v.
MARYLAND DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH,
Defendant - Appellee.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, at Baltimore.
George L. Russell, III, District Judge. (1:18-cv-01225-GLR)
Submitted: February 20, 2020 Decided: February 24, 2020
Before GREGORY, Chief Judge, RUSHING, Circuit Judge, and TRAXLER, Senior
Circuit Judge.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Tyrie Triplin, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Tyrie L. Triplin appeals the district court’s memorandum order dismissing her
complaint for violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. §§ 12101-12213
(2018) (ADA), and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to
2000e-17 (2018). On appeal, we confine our review to the issues raised in the Appellant’s
brief. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b). Because Triplin’s informal brief does not challenge the district
court’s dispositive jurisdictional conclusions regarding her ADA and defamation claims,
Triplin has forfeited appellate review of those portions 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.”). Turning
to Triplin’s Title VII claims, we have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.
Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. Triplin v. Md. Dep’t of
Health, No. 1:18-cv-01225-GLR (D. Md. Sept. 30, 2019). 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
