Opinion

Federal prisoner Christine Hogate appeals the district courts

1

denial of her motion seeking release under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A)(i). Hogates appointed counsel has moved to withdraw and filed a brief arguing that the district court erred in denying relief.

The district court determined that the circumstances that Hogate cited did not amount to extraordinary or compelling reasons that warranted a sentence reduction. We conclude that there was no abuse of discretion in the district courts determination. See United States v. Loggins, 966 F.3d 891, 893 (8th Cir. 2020). Accordingly, we affirm and grant counsel leave to withdraw. FOOTNOTES
