PER CURIAM:
Timothy J. Lynch appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for
compassionate release pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A)(i), as amended by the First
Step Act of 2018, Pub. L. No. 115-391, § 603(b)(1), 132 Stat. 5194, 5239. We have
reviewed the record on appeal and conclude that the district court did not abuse its
discretion in denying relief. See United States v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 329-30 (4th Cir.)
(providing standard), 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
