PER CURIAM: Donald Brian Beauchaine appeals the district court’s orders denying his motion for compassionate release pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A) and his subsequent motion for reconsideration. We review a district court’s denial of a compassionate release motion for abuse of discretion. United States v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir.), cert. denied, 142 S. Ct. 383 (2021). We have reviewed the record and conclude that the court did not abuse its discretion and sufficiently explained the reasons for the denial. See United States v. High, 997 F.3d 181, 188-91 (4th Cir. 2021) (discussing amount of explanation required for denial of compassionate release motion). Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s orders. United States v. Beauchaine, No. 7:15-cr-00063-D-1 (E.D.N.C. July 5, 2022 & Oct. 11, 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
