United States Attorney, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Corine Barnes appeals the district court’s order dismissing

her civil action alleging employment discrimination.    We have re-

viewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find no

reversible error.    Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the

district court.     See Barnes v. Secretary, HHS, No. CA-99-2501 (D.

Md. July 17, 2000).*     We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-

rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.

                                                            AFFIRMED

     *
       Although the district court’s order is marked as “filed” on
July 14, 2000, the district court’s records show that it was
entered on the docket sheet on July 17, 2000. Pursuant to Rules 58
and 79(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, it is the date
that the order was 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).
