PER CURIAM:
Miguel Angel Hurtado 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 order
granting or denying a compassionate release motion for abuse of discretion. United States
v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir. 2021) (stating standard of review). We have
reviewed the record and conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion. We
therefore affirm the district court’s order. United States v. Hurtado, No. 4:19-cr-00193-
RBH-1 (D.S.C. Sept. 21, 2022). We also deny Hurtado’s motion to appoint counsel. 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
