PER CURIAM
Zerrell Ross Fuentes appeals the district court's order denying his motion for compassionate release under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A). After reviewing the record, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in finding that the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) factors did not warrant reducing Fuentes' sentence. See United States v. Malone, 57 F.4th 167, 172 (4th Cir. 2023) (stating standard of review). Accordingly, we affirm the district court's order. United States v. Fuentes, No. 3:17-cr-00123-MOC-DCK-1 (W.D. N.C. June 9, 2023). 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
