PER CURIAM:
Deshawn Jamel Greene appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for
compassionate release under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A)(i), and a subsequent order denying
reconsideration. We review a district court’s denial of a compassionate release motion for
abuse of discretion. See United States v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir.) (stating
standard of review), cert. denied, 142 S. Ct. 383 (2021). After reviewing the record, we
conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion and sufficiently explained the
reasons for the denial. See United States v. High, 997 F.3d 181, 188-91 (4th Cir. 2021)
(discussing amount of explanation required for denial of compassionate release motion).
Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s orders. 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
