PER CURIAM:
Jay B. Ledford 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
Ledford’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
