PER CURIAM:
Cornell Augustus McKenzie appeals the district court’s orders denying his motions
for compassionate release and for reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and the
district court’s opinions and find no reversible error. McKenzie has waived review of the
claims he raised in the district court by failing to address those claims in his informal brief.
4th Cir. R. 34(b). Further, we decline to review the claim he has raised for the first time
on appeal. See Muth v. United States, 1 F.3d 246, 250 (4th Cir. 1993). Accordingly, we
affirm. 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
