Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

     Ida Mae Johnson seeks to appeal the district court’s order de-

nying her motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp. 2000).

We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and

find no reversible error.   Accordingly, we deny a certificate of

appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the dis-

trict court.   See Johnson v. United States, Nos. CR-98-360; CA-99-

2162-19 (D.S.C. Jan. 21, 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
January 20, 2000, the district court’s record shows that it was
entered on the docket sheet on January 21, 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).
