(8:14-cr-00083-GJH-1) Submitted: March 31, 2021 Before WILKINSON, AGEE, and HARRIS, Circuit Judges. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Antonio Lamar Cooper, Appellant Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. Decided: April 14, 2021 PER CURIAM: Antonio Lamar Cooper appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for compassionate release under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A). Upon review of the record, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion. See United States v. Kibble, ___ F.3d ___, ___, No. 20-7009, 2021 WL 1216543, at *2 (4th Cir. Apr. 1, 2021) (stating standard of review). Accordingly, we deny Cooper’s motion to vacate the district court’s order and we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. United States v. Cooper, No. 8:14-cr-00083-GJH-1 (D. Md. Nov. 30, 2020). 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.
