Before THACKER and RICHARDSON, Circuit Judges, and TRAXLER, Senior Circuit Judge.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Nigual O’Keith Brown, Jr., Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Nigual O’Keith Brown, Jr., appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for

compassionate release under

(c)(1)(A) and denying his motion for

appointment of counsel. We have reviewed the record and find no abuse of discretion.

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. United States v. Brown,

No. 1:12-cr-00344-TDS-1 (M.D.N.C. Apr. 9, 2021). 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
