PER CURIAM

Charles William Masters appeals the district court's order denying his motion for compassionate release pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A)(i). Having reviewed the record and Masters' claims, we find no reversible error in the district court's exercise of its discretion to deny relief. Accordingly, we affirm the district court's order. United States v. Masters, No. 2:18-cr-00002-TSK-MJA-1 (N.D. W.Va. Sept. 2, 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.
