                                2
PER CURIAM:

     Herman I. Shaller appeals the district court’s order denying

relief on his complaint alleging injury due to exposure to asbestos

and misconduct by judges and attorneys involved with Shaller’s

state court litigation concerning the alleged asbestos exposure.

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 Shaller v. Walker, No. CA-00-677-AW

(D. Md. Mar. 17, 2000).*     We dispense with oral argument because

the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-

terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.

                                                           AFFIRMED

     *
       Although the district court’s order is marked as “filed” on
February 16, 2000, the district court’s records show that it was
entered on the docket sheet on February 17, 2000. It is the date
the order was entered on the docket sheet that we take as the
effective date of the district court’s decision. See Fed. R. Civ.
P. 58 and 79(a); Wilson v. Murray, 806 F.2d 1232, 1234-35 (4th Cir.
1986).
