        PER CURIAM:

               Sterling Vernard Green appeals the district court’s order denying his 18 U.S.C.

        § 3582(c)(1)(A) motion for compassionate release.         After reviewing the record, we

        conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying Green’s motion.

        See United States v. High, 997 F.3d 181, 185 (4th Cir. 2021) (stating standard of review).

        Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. United States v. Green,

        No. 4:06-cr-01322-TLW-4 (D.S.C. Apr. 1, 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
