PER CURIAM:

Felix A. Okafor appeals the district court’s order granting in part his motion for

compassionate release under

18 U.S.C. § 3582

(c)(1)(A). On appeal, Okafor argues that

the district court erred in not reducing his sentence to time served. After reviewing the

record, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in finding that the

18 U.S.C. § 3553

(a) factors did not warrant further reducing Okafor’s sentence. See United

States v. Malone,

57 F.4th 167, 172

(4th Cir. 2023) (stating standard of review).

Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order. United States v. Okafor, No. 5:12-cr-

00059-M-1 (E.D.N.C. Aug. 3, 2023). 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.
