Edward Henry Latimer, III, Appellant Pro Se.

PER CURIAM:

      Edward Henry Latimer, III, appeals the district court’s order denying his 18 U.S.C.

§ 3582(c)(1)(A) motion for compassionate release. We review a district court’s denial of

a compassionate release motion for abuse of discretion. United States v. Kibble, 992 F.3d

326, 329 (4th Cir.), cert. denied, 142 S. Ct. 383 (2021). We have reviewed the record and

conclude that the 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 order. 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
