Plaintiff - Appellee,
v.
EDWARD MARTIN ANDREWS, a/k/a Edward Andrews,

Alexandria. Leonie M. Brinkema, District Judge. (1:11-cr-00320-LMB-1)
Submitted: April 29, 2021 Decided: May 5, 2021
Before AGEE, DIAZ, and RUSHING, Circuit Judges.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Edward Martin Andrews, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Edward Martin Andrews appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for
compassionate release under 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. After reviewing the
record, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying Andrews’
motion. See United States v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir. 2021) (stating standard
of review). Accordingly, we deny Andrews’ motion to appoint counsel and affirm for the
reasons stated by the district court. United States v. Andrews, No. 1:11-cr-00320-LMB-1
(E.D. Va. Feb. 11, 2021). 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.
