PER CURIAM:
Gordon Benjamin appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for
compassionate release pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A)(i). We have reviewed the
record on appeal and conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying
Benjamin’s motion. See United States v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 329 (2021) (stating
standard of review), 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
