William Andrew Merritt, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

      William Andrew Merritt appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for

compassionate release.    We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we deny Merritt’s motion for appointment of counsel and affirm for the

reasons stated by the district court. United States v. Merritt, No. 4:18-cr-00016-AWA-

LRL-1 (E.D. Va. filed Aug. 2, 2021; entered Aug. 5, 2021). 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
