PER CURIAM:

     Beverly A. Claiborne, Jr., appeals the district court’s order

denying his motion to dismiss the indictment on grounds of double

jeopardy.     We have reviewed the record and the district court’s

opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the

reasoning of the district court.       See United States v. Claiborne,

No. CR-99-297 (E.D. Va. Apr. 17, 2000).*        We dispense with oral

argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately

presented in the materials before the court and argument would not

aid the decisional process.

                                                              AFFIRMED

     *
       Although the district court’s order is marked as “filed” on
April 14, 2000, the district court’s records show that it was
entered on the docket sheet on April 17, 2000. Pursuant to Rules
58 and 79(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, it is the
date that the order was physically entered on the docket sheet that
we take as the effective date of the district court’s decision.
See Wilson v. Murray, 806 F.2d 1232, 1234-35 (4th Cir. 1986).
