UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 20-7386 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff - Appellee, v. RONALD CHISHOLM, Defendant - Appellant. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Norfolk. Robert G. Doumar, Senior District Judge. (2:14-cr-00132-LRL-1) Submitted: June 10, 2021 Decided: July 6, 2021 Before GREGORY, Chief Judge, WYNN, and DIAZ, Circuit Judges. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Ronald Chisholm, Appellant Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Ronald Chisholm appeals from the district court’s order denying his motion for compassionate release pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A), as amended by the First Step Act of 2018, Pub. L. No. 115-391, § 603(b)(1), 132 Stat. 5194, 5239. After reviewing the record, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying Chisholm’s motion. See United States v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir. 2021) (stating standard of review). Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. United States v. Chisholm, No. 2:14-cr-00132-LRL-1 (E.D. Va. Aug. 25, 2020). We deny Chisholm’s motion to amend or correct his compassionate release motion. 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
