PER CURIAM:

Terrill Lanier Williams appeals the district court’s orders denying his

(c)(1)(A) motion for compassionate release and his motion for reconsideration. We

review a district court’s order granting or denying a compassionate release motion for

abuse of discretion. United States v. Kibble,

(4th Cir.) (stating standard

of review), cert. denied,

(2021). We have reviewed the record and conclude

that the district court did not abuse its discretion in analyzing the relevant

(a) factors. See United States v. High,

(4th Cir. 2021) (affirming

district court’s order denying compassionate release where “[t]he court’s rationale . . . was

both rational and legitimate under [

(a)]” and “the court sufficiently

explained its denial to allow for meaningful appellate review” (internal quotation marks

omitted)). We therefore affirm the district court’s orders. 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
