Camilla Whitaker, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

      Camilla Whitaker appeals the district court’s order denying her 18 U.S.C.

§ 3582(c)(2) motion seeking a sentence reduction under Amendment 782 to the Sentencing

Guidelines.   The court found that Whitaker was eligible for relief but exercised its

discretion not to reduce her sentence. In so doing, the court considered the parties’

arguments and the relevant 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) factors and adequately explained its

reasons for denying the motion. We conclude that the district court did not abuse its

discretion in denying Whitaker’s motion and affirm the court’s judgment. See United

States v. Martin, 916 F.3d 389, 395 (4th Cir. 2019) (stating standard). We deny Whitaker’s

motion for appointment of counsel. 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
