Submitted: September 2, 2021                                Decided: September 10, 2021

Clarence Lamont Lyons, Appellant Pro Se. Jacqueline Romy Bechara, OFFICE OF THE
UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Alexandria, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

       Clarence Lamont Lyons appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for

compassionate release under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A). Upon review of the record, we

conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion. See

United States v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir. 2021) (stating standard of review).

Accordingly, we 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

                                            2
