PER CURIAM:
John Kennedy Wilson appeals from 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. We have
reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons
stated by the district court. United States v. Wilson, No. 5:15-cr-00221-BR-2 (E.D.N.C.,
Aug. 5, 2020). 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
