PER CURIAM:
Martinez Orlandis Black appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for
compassionate release brought pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A), as amended by the
First Step Act of 2018, Pub. L. No. 115-391, 132 Stat. 5194. We have reviewed the record
and conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying the requested
relief. See United States v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir. 2021) (stating standard of
review). Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order. United States v. Black,
No. 3:06-cr-00364-RJC-1 (W.D.N.C. Aug. 29, 2023). 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
