        PER CURIAM:

               Alphonso Stoddard appeals from the district court’s orders granting in part and

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

        and denying his motions for reconsideration. We have reviewed the record and find that

        the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying relief. See United States v. Kibble,

        992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir.) (stating standard of review), cert. denied, 142 S. Ct. 383

        (2021). Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s orders. 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
