Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM.

Bobby Arion Dinkins appeals the district court's order denying his motion for compassionate release pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A)(i), as amended by the First Step Act of 2018, Pub. L. No. 115-391, § 603(b)(1), 132 Stat. 5194, 5239. We review for abuse of discretion the district court's denial of a compassionate release motion. United States v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir. 2021). After reviewing the record, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in determining that the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) factors weighed against granting compassionate release in Dinkins' case. See United States v. High, 997 F.3d 181, 187-91 (4th Cir. 2021). Accordingly, we affirm the district court's order. See United States v. Dinkins, No. 3:08-cr-00254-MR-1 (W.D. N.C. Oct. 5, 2020). We deny Dinkins' motion for appointment of counsel. 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.
