                       UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
                           FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

                                       No. 21-6286

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

                     Plaintiff - Appellee,

              v.

EDDIE BRIAN BECKHAM,

                     Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of North Carolina, at
Statesville. Kenneth D. Bell, District Judge. (5:18-cr-00029-KDB-DCK-1)

Submitted: July 20, 2021                                          Decided: July 23, 2021

Before WILKINSON, AGEE, and DIAZ, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Eddie Brian Beckham, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

       Eddie Brian Beckham appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his 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, 132 Stat. 5194. 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 for the

reasons stated by the district court. United States v. Beckham, No. 5:18-cr-00029-KDB-

DCK-1 (W.D.N.C. Jan. 25, 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
