PER CURIAM:
Judith Wright appeals the district court’s order denying her motion for
compassionate release under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A). Upon review of the record, we
conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion. See
United States v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir. 2021) (stating standard of review).
Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. United States v. Wright,
No. 5:18-cr-00005-EKD-6 (W.D. Va. Dec. 8, 2020). We grant Wright’s motion to seal her
informal brief and deny her motion for 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
