PER CURIAM:
Dwight Ulmer appeals the district court’s order denying his 18 U.S.C.
§ 3582(c)(1)(A) motions for compassionate release. The district court concluded that
Ulmer failed to demonstrate extraordinary and compelling reasons for relief and that the
relevant 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) factors independently weighed against his early release. After
reviewing the record, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in
denying Ulmer’s motions. See United States v. Brown, 78 F.4th 122, 127 (4th Cir. 2023)
(stating standard of review). Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order. United
States v. Ulmer, No. 5:20-cr-00131-FL-1 (E.D.N.C. July 31, 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
