PER CURIAM:

Lemiah Wyatt Sanders, Jr., appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his

18 U.S.C. § 3582

(c)(2) motion for a sentence reduction. We have the reviewed the record

and find no reversible error. Although the district court’s explanation of its denial was

sparse and offered only a limited review of the facts of Sanders’s case, it was adequate to

allow for meaningful appellate review given the equally limited arguments proffered by

Sanders in his motion, his failure to carry the burden why the

18 U.S.C. § 3553

(a) factors

warranted a sentence reduction, and the district court’s extensive prior involvement in

Sanders’s case. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order. United States v. Sanders,

No. 1:18-cr-00059-LCB-1 (M.D.N.C. June 4, 2024). 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.
