PER CURIAM:

     Oladayo Oladokun seeks to appeal the district court’s order

denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp.

2000).   We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opin-

ion and find no reversible error.    Accordingly, we deny a certif-

icate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of

the district court. See United States v. Oladokun, Nos. CR-96-285;

CA-99-1886-AW (D. Md. Feb. 16, 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
February 14, 2000, the district court’s record shows that it was
entered on the docket sheet on February 16, 2000.       Pursuant to
Rules 58 and 79(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, we take
the date that the judgment or order was entered on the docket sheet
as the effective date of the district court’s decision. See Wilson
v. Murray, 806 F.2d 1232, 1234-35 (4th Cir. 1986).
