PER CURIAM:
Tarik Coefield 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.) (stating standard of review), cert. denied, 142 S. Ct.
383 (2021). We have reviewed the record and conclude that the district court did not abuse
its discretion in analyzing the relevant 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) factors. See United States v.
High, 997 F.3d 181, 189 (4th Cir. 2021). We therefore affirm the district court’s order.
We deny Coefield’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
