FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 21-6353
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff - Appellee,
v.
COREY THOMAS JONES,
Defendant - Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at
Alexandria. Claude M. Hilton, Senior District Judge. (1:11-cr-00530-CMH-2)
Submitted: May 25, 2021 Decided: May 28, 2021
Before DIAZ and QUATTLEBAUM, Circuit Judges, and SHEDD, Senior Circuit Judge.
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Corey Thomas Jones, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Corey Thomas Jones appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his 18
U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A)(i) motion for compassionate release. Upon review, we discern no
abuse of discretion in the district court’s determination that, under the pertinent 18 U.S.C.
§ 3553(a) sentencing factors, compassionate release was not warranted. See United States
v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 329-31 (4th Cir. 2021) (providing standard of review and outlining
steps for evaluating compassionate release motions). Accordingly, we affirm the district
court’s judgment. 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
