PER CURIAM:

       Michael Rondale Gibson, a federal prisoner, appeals from the district court’s order

denying his motion for compassionate release pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A), as

amended by the First Step Act of 2018, Pub. L. No. 115-391, § 603(b)(1), 132 Stat. 5194,

5239. Upon review of the record, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its

discretion in ruling that the pertinent 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) factors weighed against

compassionate release. See United States v. High, 997 F.3d 181, 185 (4th Cir. 2021).

Accordingly, we affirm. 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
