PER CURIAM:

Michael Daniel Hammonds appeals the district court’s order denying his renewed

18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A) motion for compassionate release. We have reviewed the record

and discern no abuse of discretion in the district court’s denial of Hammonds’ renewed

motion. See United States v. High, 997 F.3d 181, 185 (4th Cir. 2021) (stating standard of

review). Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order. United States v. Hammonds,

No. 0:02-cr-00535-CMC-1 (D.S.C. Nov. 30, 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
