David Wayne Smith, Jr., appeals the district courts order denying his motion for compassionate release pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(1)(A)(i), as amended by the First Step Act of 2018, Pub. L. No. 115-391, § 603(b)(1), 132 Stat. 5194, 5239. We review a district courts denial of a motion for compassionate release for an abuse of discretion. United States v. Kibble, 992 F.3d 326, 329 (4th Cir. 2021). We have reviewed the record and discern no reversible error. *
Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. United States v. Smith, No. 7:07-cr-00070-GEC-1 (W.D. Va. Oct. 30, 2020). 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

FOOTNOTE
. Although the district court did not have the benefit of our decision in United States v. McCoy, 981 F.3d 271, 284 (4th Cir. 2020), we conclude that the court properly based its decision on Smiths failure to establish extraordinary and compelling circumstances justifying his release. Thus, the courts reference to USSG § 1B1.13, p.s., does not call into question the propriety of its decision. PER CURIAM:
Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
