PER CURIAM:
Michael Freddie Davis appeals the district court’s order denying his second motion
for compassionate release pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A), as amended by the First
Step Act of 2018, Pub. L. No. 115-391, § 603(b)(1), 132 Stat. 5194, 5239. We review a
district court’s denial of a motion for compassionate release for abuse of discretion. United
States v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir.), cert. denied, 142 S. Ct. 383 (2021). Upon
review, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying Davis’
motion based on its consideration of the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) factors. See United States v.
High, 997 F.3d 181, 187 (4th Cir. 2021). Accordingly, although we grant Davis’ motion
to amend his informal brief to include his attached exhibits, 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
