PER CURIAM:
Samuel Larell Anderson appeals the district court’s orders denying Anderson’s
motion for compassionate release pursuant to 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,
and denying Anderson’s motion for reconsideration. After reviewing the record, we
conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying Anderson’s
motions. See United States v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir. 2021) (per curiam)
(stating standard of review for § 3582(c)(1)(A)(i) motion). Accordingly, we affirm the
district court’s orders. United States v. Anderson, No. 0:04-cr-00353-CMC-3 (D.S.C.
Sept. 21, 2020; Jan. 15, 2021). 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
