CLAUDE SLOAN,

Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia, at Big Stone Gap. James P. Jones, Senior District Judge. (2:00-cr-10101-JPJ-1; 2:18-cr-00004- JPJ-1)

Submitted: December 16, 2021 Decided: December 20, 2021

Before WYNN and RICHARDSON, Circuit Judges, and KEENAN, Senior Circuit Judge.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Claude Sloan, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Claude Sloan appeals the district court’s order denying his third motion for

compassionate release under

(c)(1)(A)(i), as amended by the First Step

Act of 2018,

(b)(1),

, 5239. Having reviewed the

record and finding no reversible error, we affirm the decision of the district court. See

United States v. Sloan, Nos. 2:00-cr-10101-JPJ-1; 2:18-cr-00004-JPJ-1 (W.D. Va. July 19,

2021). We deny Sloan’s motion to appoint 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.

AFFIRMED
