UNPUBLISHED

Submitted: February 21, 2023

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Spartanburg. Timothy M. Cain, District Judge. (7:97-cr-00480-TMC-1)

Mark Jay Allen, Appellant Pro Se.

Before NIEMEYER and DIAZ, Circuit Judges, and MOTZ, Senior Circuit Judge.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM

Mark Jay Allen appeals the district court's order denying his motion for compassionate release. We have reviewed the record on appeal and conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying relief. See United States v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir.) (providing standard), cert. denied, 142 S.Ct. 383 (2021). Accordingly, we affirm. United States v. Allen, No. 7:97-cr-00480-TMC-1 (D.S.C. June 3, 2022). 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
