USCA4 Appeal: 22-7181     Doc: 9         Filed: 04/25/2023    Pg: 2 of 2

        PER CURIAM:

              Miguel Angel Hurtado appeals the district court’s order denying his 18 U.S.C.

        § 3582(c)(1)(A) motion for compassionate release. We review a district court’s order

        granting or denying a compassionate release motion for abuse of discretion. United States

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

        reviewed the record and conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion. We

        therefore affirm the district court’s order. United States v. Hurtado, No. 4:19-cr-00193-

        RBH-1 (D.S.C. Sept. 21, 2022). We also deny Hurtado’s motion to appoint counsel. 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
