PER CURIAM:
Sean Francis Schaffner appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for a
sentence reduction pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2), and his motions for a reduced
sentence or compassionate release pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A). We have
reviewed the record on appeal and conclude that the district court did not abuse its
discretion in denying relief. See United States v. Webb, 5 F.4th 495, 498 (4th Cir. 2021)
(providing standard for motions for reduction in sentence); United States v. Kibble, 992
F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir.) (providing standard for compassionate release motions), cert.
denied, 142 S. Ct. 383 (2021). Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district
court. United States v. Schaffner, No. 4:10-cr-00370-RBH-1 (D.S.C. Apr. 26, 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
