UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 20-7360 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff - Appellee, v. WILLIE A. SAXBY, JR., Defendant - Appellant. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina, at Greensboro. Thomas D. Schroeder, Chief District Judge. (1:11-cr-00132-TDS-1) Submitted: January 31, 2022 Decided: February 3, 2022 Before WILKINSON, MOTZ, and WYNN, Circuit Judges. Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Willie A. Saxby, Jr., Appellant Pro Se. Angela Hewlett Miller, Assistant United States Attorney, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Greensboro, North Carolina, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Willie A. Saxby, Jr., appeals the district court’s order denying his motion for compassionate release pursuant to
18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A), as amended by the First Step Act of 2018, Pub. L. No. 115-391,
132 Stat. 5194. We review the district court’s order for abuse of discretion. See United States v. Kibble,
992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir.), cert. denied,
142 S. Ct. 383(2021). “A district court abuses its discretion when it acts arbitrarily or irrationally, fails to consider judicially recognized factors constraining its exercise of discretion, relies on erroneous factual or legal premises, or commits an error of law.” United States v. Dillard,
891 F.3d 151, 158 (4th Cir. 2018) (internal quotation marks omitted). After reviewing the record in its entirety, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion. Therefore, we affirm the district court’s order. 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 2
