for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

       Tracy Vernon Osborne appeals the district court's order denying his motion for

compassionate release under 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. After reviewing the

record on appeal, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying

the motion for compassionate release. See United States v. High, __ F.3d __, __, No.

20-7350, 2021 WL 1823289, at *6 (4th Cir. Apr. 21, 2021) (rejecting argument that district

court must invariably address defendant's arguments on record in denying motion for

compassionate release).     Accordingly, we affirm.       United States v. Osborne, No.

2:15-cr-00015-JPJ-16 (W.D. Va. Aug. 20, 2020). 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
