        PER CURIAM:

               Phillip Jazir Thompson appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for

        compassionate release. We have reviewed the record and discern no abuse of discretion

        by the district court. See United States v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir. 2021) (stating

        standard of review for compassionate release motions). Accordingly, we affirm the district

        court’s order.    United States v. Thompson, No. 3:17-cr-00094-HEH-1 (E.D. Va.

        July 29, 2022). 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

                                                      2
