PER CURIAM:
Brian Gale appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for compassionate
release. We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm
substantially for the reasons stated by the district court. United States v. Gale, No. 4:17-
cr-00047-RAJ-RJK-1 (E.D. Va. May 12, 2021); see also United States v. High, 997 F.3d
181, 190-91 (4th Cir. 2021) (discussing explanation requirements for compassionate
release decision); Jackson v. Lightsey, 775 F.3d 170, 177 (4th Cir. 2014) (limiting appellate
review to issues raised in informal brief). 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
