PER CURIAM:
Thomas Edward Carter appeals the district court’s order granting in part his motion
for compassionate release. We have reviewed the record and discern no abuse of discretion
by the district court. See United States v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir.) (stating
standard of review for compassionate release motions), cert. denied, 142 S. Ct. 383 (2021).
Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order. 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
