PER CURIAM:
Joseph Mike appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for compassionate
release under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A). Upon review of the record, we conclude that the
district court did not abuse its discretion by denying Mike’s motion. See United States v.
Malone, 57 F.4th 167, 172 (4th Cir. 2023) (stating standard of review). Accordingly, we
affirm the district court’s order. United States v. Mike, No. 3:05-cr-00046-RJC-DSC-1
(W.D.N.C. Oct. 30, 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
