USCA4 Appeal: 21-6635       Doc: 12         Filed: 04/21/2022      Pg: 2 of 2

        PER CURIAM:

               Robert James Pearson White appeals the district court’s order denying his motion

        for compassionate release under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A). We have reviewed the record

        and find that the district court did not abuse its discretion. See United States v. Kibble, 992

        F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir. 2021) (stating standard of review). Accordingly, we deny White’s

        motion to appoint counsel, deny as moot White’s motion to waive the filing fee, ∗ and 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

               ∗
                 White, who is proceeding under the Criminal Justice Act, is not required to pay a
        filing fee. See 18 U.S.C. § 3006A.

                                                      2
