PER CURIAM:
Travis Brock Byrd appeals the district court’s order denying his motions for
compassionate release under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A)(i), 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 determining that
the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) factors weighed against granting compassionate release in Byrd’s
case. See United States v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir. 2021) (per curiam) (stating
standard of review). Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order on this basis. United
States v. Byrd, No. 5:06-cr-00298-D-1 (E.D.N.C. Aug. 21, 2020). 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
