UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 00-7281 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Respondent - Appellee, versus MITCHELL LEE GRESHAM, a/k/a Hickey, Petitioner - Appellant. Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, at Baltimore. Marvin J. Garbis, District Judge. (CR-97- 162-MJG, CA-99-3591-MJG) Submitted: December 14, 2000 Decided: December 20, 2000 Before WIDENER, WILKINS, and TRAXLER, Circuit Judges. Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Mitchell Lee Gresham, Appellant Pro Se. Martin Joseph Clarke, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM: Mitchell Lee Gresham 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 opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a cer- tificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. See Gresham v. United States, Nos. CR-97- 162-MJG; CA-99-3591-MJG (D. Md. Aug. 23, 2000).* We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate- ly 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 23, 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). 2
