PER CURIAM:
Jamie Lubell Dixon appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for
compassionate release under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A). Limiting our review of the record
to the issues raised in Dixon’s informal brief, we conclude that the district court did not
abuse its discretion by denying Dixon’s motion. See United States v. Malone, 57 F.4th
167, 172 (4th Cir. 2023) (stating standard of review); see also 4th Cir. R. 34(b); 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 order. United States v. Dixon, No. 3:11-cr-
00305-CMC-1 (D.S.C. Mar. 7, 2023). 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
