Willis White, Appellant Pro Se. Clarence Joe DelForge, III, OFFICE
OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF NORTH CAROLINA, Raleigh, North Carolina,
for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Willis White seeks to appeal the district court’s order de-

nying his motions filed under Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b)(6).     We have

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

reversible error.    Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appeal-

ability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district

court.    See White v. Chavis, No. CA-98-52-5-MU (W.D.N.C. Aug. 24,

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.

                                                           DISMISSED

     *
       Although the district court’s order is marked as “filed” on
August 22, 2000, the district court’s records show that it was
entered on the docket sheet on August 24, 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).
