PER CURIAM:
In these consolidated appeals, Jontavious Kyree Lyons appeals the district court’s
order denying his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A) motion for compassionate release.* We
review a district court’s denial of a compassionate release motion for abuse of discretion.
United States v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir.), cert. denied, 142 S. Ct. 383 (2021).
We have reviewed the record and conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion
and sufficiently explained the reasons for the denial. Accordingly, we affirm the district
court’s order. United States v. Lyons, Nos. 1:18-cr-00052-CCE-2, 1:18-cr-00254-CCE-1
(M.D.N.C. June 14, 2022). 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
* Although Lyons was charged and convicted in two separate criminal cases, the
district court issued a single order denying Lyons’ compassionate release motion.
