PER CURIAM:

Randall J. Keystone appeals the district court’s order denying his 18 U.S.C.

§ 3582(c)(1)(A) motion for compassionate release. We have reviewed the record and find

no reversible error. See United States v. Davis, 99 F.4th 647, 653-55, 657-59, 661 (4th Cir.

2024) (stating standard of review, addressing determinations district court must make to

grant relief, and addressing parameters governing district court’s consideration of factors

raised for relief); Jackson v. Lightsey, 775 F.3d 170, 177 (4th Cir. 2014) (“The informal

brief is an important document; under Fourth Circuit rules, our review is limited to issues

preserved in that brief.”). Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order. United

States v. Keystone, No. 2:18-cr-00013-JPJ-1 (W.D. Va. Aug. 6, 2024). 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.
