Fabian C. Fleifel, federal prisoner # 57575-018, has appealed the district courts order denying his motion for compassionate release pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A)(i). He argues that the district court should have reduced his sentence to time served in light of the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) factors and his health conditions. To the extent he has moved this court for compassionate release, the motion is DENIED because we cannot decide such a motion in the first instance as, in context, § 3582 directs the filing of such motions in the sentencing court. See § 3582(c)(1)(A); see also Dillon v. United States, 560 U.S. 817, 821, 130 S.Ct. 2683, 177 L.Ed.2d 271 (2010).
We pretermit the question whether the district court erred in determining that Fleifel failed to exhaust his administrative remedies. See United States v. Franco, 973 F.3d 465, 467-68 (5th Cir.), cert. denied, ––– U.S. ––––, 141 S. Ct. 920, 208 L.Ed.2d 466 (2020). To the extent that Fleifel relies on documents or facts that were not before the district court, we will not consider them. See Theriot v. Parish of Jefferson, 185 F.3d 477, 491 n.26 (5th Cir. 1999).
Fleifel has not shown that the district court abused its discretion in determining that he did not have an extraordinary and compelling reason for his immediate release. See United States v. Thompson, 984 F.3d 431, 434-35 (5th Cir. 2021), cert. denied, 2021 WL 2044647 (U.S. May 24, 2021). The district courts order is AFFIRMED.
