PER CURIAM:

      Jerry Goralski Lamb appeals the district court’s order granting Appellee’s motion

for summary judgment. * Lamb challenges the district court’s grant of summary judgment

on Lamb’s claims under the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, 29 U.S.C.A. §§ 701

to 7961 (West 2018), that Appellee failed to provide reasonable accommodations,

discriminated against Lamb on the basis of his disability, and retaliated against Lamb for

requesting accommodations.

      We review an order granting summary judgment de novo, “drawing reasonable

inferences in the light most favorable to the non-moving party.” Butler v. Drive Auto.

Indus. of Am., Inc., 

, 407 (4th Cir. 2015) (internal quotation marks omitted).

“Summary judgment is proper ‘if the movant shows that there is no genuine dispute as to

any material fact and the movant is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.’” 

(quoting Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(a)). To survive a summary judgment motion, “the nonmoving

party must rely on more than conclusory allegations, mere speculation, the building of one

inference upon another, or the mere existence of a scintilla of evidence.”       Dash v.

Mayweather, 

, 311 (4th Cir. 2013).




      *
         Appellee filed a motion to dismiss or, in the alternative, for summary judgment,
and the district court dismissed some claims and granted summary judgment on others.
However, on appeal, Lamb only disputes the district court’s grant of summary judgment.
Because he does not raise them on appeal, Lamb has forfeited review of the other claims
contained in his complaint. See 4th Cir. R. 34(b); Jackson v. Lightsey, 

, 177
(4th Cir. 2014).

                                            3
       We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Lamb was absent from

work without approval for 43 days. In that time, despite repeated requests from Appellee,

Lamb failed to provide adequate documentation establishing the nature of his disability

and demonstrating that the requested accommodation would allow him to perform his job

requirements. See Jacobs v. N.C. Admin. Office of the Courts, 

, 581 (4th Cir.

2015). In addition, the record does not contain any evidence that Lamb’s termination was

based on discrimination or retaliation. See Hannah P. v. Coats, 

, 342 (4th

Cir. 2019); Strothers v. City of Laurel, 

, 327 (4th Cir. 2018). We therefore

conclude that the district court did not err in granting summary judgment on Lamb’s

Rehabilitation Act claims.

       We thus affirm the district court’s order and deny Lamb’s request for the

appointment of counsel. 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
