PER CURIAM: Lloyd Mack Royal, III, appeals the district court’s order denying his 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A) motion for compassionate release. We have reviewed the record and discern no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny Royal’s pending motions and affirm the district court’s order. United States v. Royal, No. 8:09-cr-00048-TDC-1 (D. Md. Dec. 6, 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.

AFFIRMED
