Paul W. Grimm, District Judge. (8:18-cr-00305-PWG-1)
Submitted: May 25, 2021 Decided: May 28, 2021

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Maurice McKay, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Maurice McKay appeals the district court’s order denying his motion 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
McKay’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. McKay, No. 8:18-cr-00305-PWG-1 (D. Md. Dec. 17, 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
