USCA4 Appeal: 22-6810      Doc: 9        Filed: 11/29/2022     Pg: 2 of 2

        PER CURIAM:

               Mark Wayne Woods appeals the district court’s order denying his 18 U.S.C.

        § 3582(c)(1)(A)(i) motion for compassionate release. Upon review, we discern no abuse

        of discretion in the district court’s determination that Woods failed to demonstrate an

        extraordinary and compelling basis for relief. See United States v. High, 997 F.3d 181, 185

        (4th Cir. 2021). 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
