PER CURIAM:
D’Angelo Dunlap appeals the district court’s order denying his 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, and the order denying
his motion for reconsideration. After reviewing the record, we conclude that the district
court did not abuse its discretion in denying Dunlap’s motions. See United States v. Kibble,
992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir. 2021) (per curiam) (stating standard), cert. denied, No. 21-
5624, 2021 WL 4733616 (U.S. Oct. 12, 2021). Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s
orders. 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
