Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
William Douglas Spicer appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for
compassionate release pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A)(i). We review a district
court’s denial of a motion for compassionate release for an abuse of discretion. United
States v. Kibble,
992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir. 2021). We have reviewed the record and find
no abuse of discretion. Therefore, we affirm the district court’s order. 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
