`Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
`

`
`
`
`
`
`PER CURIAM:
`
`Ryan O’Neil Little appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for
`
`compassionate release. We have reviewed the record and find that the district court did
`
`not abuse its discretion. See United States v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir.) (stating
`
`standard of review), cert. denied, 142 S.Ct. 383 (2021). Accordingly, we affirm the district
`
`court’s order. We deny Little’s motion for the appointment of counsel. 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.
