PER CURIAM:

       Jeffrey Lee McCotter appeals the district court’s order denying his motions for a

sentence reduction, pursuant to § 404 of the First Step Act of 2018 (“First Step Act”), Pub.

L. No. 115-391, 132 Stat. 5194, 5222, and for compassionate release, pursuant to 18 U.S.C.

§ 3582(c)(1)(A), as amended by § 603(b)(1) of the First Step Act, Pub. L. No. 115-391,

132 Stat. 5194, 5239. Having reviewed the record and finding no reversible error, we

affirm the decision of the district court. United States v. McCotter, No. 4:09-cr-00075-D-

1 (E.D.N.C. June 9, 2021). McCotter’s motion for appointment of counsel is denied. 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
