PER CURIAM:
Randall J. Keystone appeals the district court’s order denying his 18 U.S.C.
§ 3582(c)(1)(A) motion for compassionate release. We have reviewed the record and find
no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny Keystone’s motion for default judgment and
affirm the district court’s order. United States v. Keystone, No. 2:18-cr-00013-JPJ-1 (W.D.
Va. June 10, 2025). 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
