PER CURIAM.

Blake Knievel appeals the district court’s1 denial of his motion for a sentence reduction under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A)(i). Upon careful review, we conclude that

1 The Honorable Robert F. Rossiter, Jr., Chief Judge, United States District Court for the District of Nebraska.

the court did not err in finding that Knievel failed to establish extraordinary and compelling reasons warranting a sentence reduction. See United States v. Marcussen, 15 F.4th 855, 858 (8th Cir. 2021).

Accordingly, we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw and affirm.
